the yaw rate sensor, which is al-
ready used for Dynamic Traction
Control DTC and for Dynamic
Damping Control DDC.
With an increasing inclination, the
braking pressure gradient is in-
creasingly limited at the start of
braking. This results in a slower
pressure buildup. In addition, the
pressure modulation in the range
of the ABS control is more uni-
form.
Advantages for the driver
The advantages of ABS Pro for
the rider are sensitive response
and high braking and riding sta-
bility with the best possible de-
celeration, even in curves.
ABS Pro is only available
RAIN
in the and
riding modes.

DTC
How does DTC work?
BMW Motorrad DTC compares
the wheel speeds of the front
and rear wheels. Differences in
the relative rotation speeds al-
low the system to determine
the slip rate, and thus the sta-
bility reserves at the rear wheel.
The engine-management system
adapts the engine torque when
the slip limit is exceeded.
Even with DTC, the laws of
physics cannot be overrid-
den. The rider is always respon-
sible for adapting his/her driving
style.
SPORT
Do not reduce the additional
safety provided with risky
driving.
DTC adjustment
The behavior of the DTC can
be adjusted in the SLICK riding
mode. As a result, DTC inter-
ventions on the race track can
be adjusted to the physical limits
of worn tires respectively of tires
not tested by BMW Motorrad.
Based on the standard setting,
the point in time of DTC inter-
vention can be moved in seven
steps each to an earlier or later
time. The earlier the intervention
occurs, the better is the lateral
stability. If intervention occurs
later, traction is improved at the
expense of lateral stability until
tire grip is exceeded.
Special situations
As lean angles increase, accel-
eration potential is also progres-
sively restricted by the laws of
physics. This can result in re-
duced acceleration when coming
out of very tight curves.
