Riding mode
BMW Motorrad has evolved two
application scenaria for your mo-
torcycle, allowing you to select
the one that is best suited to
your current conditions:
ROAD: highway operation
ENDURO: off-road mode
The system then dials in the
ideal wheel slip rate for the
closed-loop control provided by
ABS and ASC on every type of
road surface.
Detailed information regard-
ing the off-road mode can
be found in the section entitled
"Technology in detail."
Selecting off-road mode
Precondition: Road mode is acti-
vated.
Off-road mode (Enduro)
is not intended for normal
road operation. Switching the
off-road mode (Enduro) on dur-
ing road operation can result in
unstable riding conditions when
braking in ABS or accelerating in
ASC. This results in a danger of
falling.
