If the front wheel lifts clear of the
7
ground under severe accelera-
tion, the DTC reduces engine
100
torque until the front wheel re-
gains contact with the ground.
Under these circumstances,
BMW Motorrad recommends
rolling the throttle slightly closed
so as to restore stability with the
least possible delay.
When riding on a slippery sur-
face, never snap the throttle
twistgrip fully closed without
pulling the clutch at the same
time. Engine braking torque can
cause the rear wheel to skid, with
z
a corresponding loss of stability.
The BMW Motorrad DTC is un-
able to control a situation of this
nature.
