continue to transmit the mea-
sured readings for some time
after the vehicle comes to a stop.
Transmission time of the
measured values after
vehicle standstill:
min 15 min
If an RDC control unit is installed
but the wheels have no sensors,
a fault message is generated.
Tire inflation pressure
ranges
The RDC control unit distin-
guishes between three inflation
pressure ranges matched to the
motorcycle:
Tire pressure within the per-
missible tolerance
Tire pressure within the limit
range of the permissible toler-
ance
Tire pressure outside of the
permissible tolerance
Temperature
compensation
The tire inflation pressure is tem-
perature dependent, i.e. it in-
creases or decreases together
with the tire air temperature. The
tire temperature is dependent on
the outside temperature, the rid-
ing style and the length of the
journey.
The tire pressures
are shown in the TFT
display with temperature
compensation and are always
based on the following tire air
temperature:
68 °F (20 °C)
Tire pressure gages at gas sta-
tions do not make any adjust-
ment for the air temperature,
the tire pressure indicated de-
pends on the temperature of the
air in the tire. As a result, in most
cases the values displayed there
do not match the values shown
in the TFT display.
Tire pressure adjustment
Compare the RDC value in the
TFT display with the value on
the back cover of the operating
instructions. The difference be-
tween the two values must be
compensated with the tire infla-
tion pressure tester at the filling
station.
Example
According to the rider's man-
ual, the tire pressure should
have the following value:
36.3 psi (2.5 bar)
The following value is dis-
played in the TFT display:
33.4 psi (2.3 bar)
Missing is thus:
