In the ENDURO riding mode,
8
ABS is matched to off-road
operation using road tires. In-
90
tervention of the ABS occurs
later than during on-road op-
eration. When riding off-road,
slight lifting of the rear wheel is
tolerated by the system.
In the ENDURO+ riding mode,
the ABS is matched to off-road
operation using coarse-tread
off-road tires. The ABS inter-
vention on the front wheel oc-
curs later than during on-road
operation. There is no ABS in-
tervention on the rear wheel if
the footbrake lever is actuated.
z
ASC
The front wheel lift-off detec-
tion is switched on in all riding
modes and it offers maximum
support.
In the RAIN and ROAD riding
modes, the ASC is matched to
road operation.
Intervention of the ASC oc-
curs in the RAIN riding mode at
such an early stage that max-
imum ride stability (i.e. road-
holding) is achieved. Interven-
tion of the ASC occurs in the
ROAD riding mode later than in
the RAIN riding mode. Slipping
of the rear wheel is avoided
whenever possible.
In the ENDURO and
ENDURO+ riding modes, the
ASC is matched to off-road
mode.
The ENDURO riding mode is
designed for road tires in off-
road mode. Intervention of
the ASC occurs later, enabling
slight drifts to occur.
The ENDURO+ riding mode
is designed for coarse-tread
off-road tires in off-road mode.
Here, ASC intervenes still later
so that even longer drifts are
possible.
Changing setting
The process of changing be-
tween the ABS and ASC func-
tions for the prevailing riding
mode is only possible while in
motion if certain operating condi-
tions are met:
No drive torque at rear wheel.
No brake pressure in the brak-
ing system.
This operating mode is active
when the motorcycle is stopped
with the ignition switched ON. As
an alternative, the following steps
must be carried out:
Turn back throttle grip.
Do not actuate brake lever.
First the desired riding mode is
preselected. The new selection
is not activated until the specified
conditions are present in all af-
fected systems.
