BRAKE SYSTEM
Warning
Danger of accidents Vehicle rollover
It is not always possible to prevent vehicle rollover in extreme riding situations
(e. g. luggage loaded with a high center of gravity, varying road surfaces, steep
descents, full braking without disengaging the gear). Adapt your riding style to
the road conditions and your driving ability.
The ABS operates with two independent brake circuits (front and rear brakes). During nor-
mal operation, the brake system operates like a conventional brake system without ABS.
When the ABS control unit detects a locking tendency in a wheel, ABS begins regulating
the brake pressure. The regulating process causes a slight pulsing of the hand and foot
brake levers.
ABS warning lamp
must light up after the ignition is switched on and go out after
starting off. If it does not go out after starting off or if it lights up while riding, this indicates
a fault in the ABS system. In this case, the ABS is no longer enabled and the wheels may
lock during braking. The brake system itself stays functional; only ABS control is not
available.
The ABS warning lamp may also light up if the rotating speeds of the front and rear
wheels differ greatly under extreme riding conditions, for example when making wheelies
or if the rear wheel spins. This causes the ABS to switch off.
To reactivate the ABS, stop the vehicle and switch off the ignition. The ABS is reactivated
when the vehicle is switched on again. The ABS warning lamp goes out when you start
off.
Button
can be used to switch ABS off manually (see Starting).
