BMW Motorrad has developed
two operational scenarios for
your motorcycle from which you
can select the scenario suitable
for your situation:
ROAD: On-road riding
ENDURO: Off-road mode
The optimum wheel slip level is
adjusted for every road surface
for the ABS as well as ASC sys-
tem.
Detailed information regard-
ing the off-road mode can
be found in the section entitled
"Engineering details".
Adjusting off-road mode
Prerequisite: On-road riding is
active.
The off-road mode is not
intended for normal on-road
riding. Switching the off-road
mode on during on-road riding
can result in unstable riding con-
ditions when braking in ABS or
accelerating in ASC. This could
cause a fall.
Switch the off-road mode on only
during off-road riding.
