WARNING
Risky riding style
Accident hazard despite ASC/
DTC
The rider is always responsi-
ble for adapting his/her driving
style.
Do not reduce the system's ex-
tra safety margin with careless
riding or unnecessary risks.
Special situations
As lean angles increase, accel-
eration potential is also progres-
z
sively restricted by the laws of
physics. This can result in re-
duced acceleration when coming
out of very tight curves.
To detect spinning or slipping
away of the rear wheel, among
other things the speeds of the
front and rear wheel are com-
pared and the angle with DTC
compared to ASC is taken into
account.
with riding modes Pro
If the value for the angle are de-
tected to be implausible for a
long period, a replacement value
is used for the angle or the DTC
function is deactivated. In these
cases, a DTC error is displayed.
A self-diagnosis routine must be
completed before the error will
be displayed.
Under the following unusual rid-
ing conditions, BMW Motorrad
Traction Control may be deacti-
vated automatically.
Unusual riding conditions:
Driving on the rear wheel
(wheelie) for a longer period.
Rear wheel spinning in place
with front brake engaged (burn
out).
Heating up on an auxiliary
stand at idle speed or with gear
engaged.

If the front wheel loses con-
tact with the ground under ex-
treme acceleration, the ASC or
DTC function reduces the engine
torque in the RAIN and ROAD rid-
ing modes until the front wheel
makes contact with the ground
again.
In the DTC settings DYNAMIC
and DYNAMIC PRO, the front
wheel lift-off detection permits
brief wheelies.
In the RAIN, ROAD and
DYNAMIC riding modes, the
