Brake system - with BMW Integral ABS
When the ABS function is
deactivated – as indicated by
the ABS warning light 1 – the
safety reserves normally
offered by the anti-lock brak-
ing system are not available
until the ABS function is
reactivated.
There is a risk of dropping the
motorcycle if the brakes are
applied too hard and the front
wheel locks or the rear wheel
lifts clear of the ground as a
result of a high level of front
tire adhesion.
