Parking Your Motorcycle - BMW S 1000 RR 2021 Rider's Manual

to suit the rider's individual
needs and preferences.
Possibility of a fall not
precluded
Although ABS Pro and
Dynamic Brake Control
provide the rider with valuable
assistance and constitutes a
huge advance in safety for
braking with the motorcycle
banked for cornering, it cannot
under any circumstances be
considered as redefining the
physical limits that apply to
motorcycling. It is still possible
for these limits to be overshot
due to misjudgement or rider
error. In extreme cases this can
result in a crash.
Use on public roads
ABS Pro and Dynamic Brake
Control help make the motor-
cycle even safer for riding on
public roads. When the brakes
are applied because of an un-
foreseen hazard when the mo-
torcycle is banked for corner-
ing, within the physical lim-
its that apply to motorcycling
the ABS Pro system prevents
the wheels from locking and
skidding away. In panic brak-
ing, Dynamic Brake Control in-
creases the braking effect and
intervenes if the throttle grip is
accidentally turned during brak-
ing.
ABS Pro was not
developed to enhance
individual braking performance
with the motorcycle banked
into corners.
