14 BRAKE SYSTEM 116
In the "SUP MOT" ABS mode, the ABS only controls the front wheel. There is no ABS
intervention on the rear wheel. The ABS lamp
flashes slowly to remind you that the
"SUP MOT" ABS mode is enabled.
Info
In the "SUP MOT" ABS mode, the rear wheel may block and there is a risk of crash-
ing.
The ABS operates with two independent brake circuits (front and rear brakes). When the
brake electronics control unit detects a locking tendency in a wheel, ABS begins regulat-
ing the brake pressure. The regulating process causes a slight pulsing of the hand and foot
brake levers.
The ABS lamp
must light up after the ignition is switched on and go out after starting
off. If it does not go out after starting off or if it is lit while riding, this indicates a fault in
the ABS system. In this case, the ABS is no longer enabled and the wheels may lock during
braking. The brake system itself stays functional; only ABS control is not available.
The ABS lamp may also light up if the rotating speeds of the front and rear wheels differ
greatly under extreme riding conditions, for example when making "wheelies" or if the rear
wheel spins. This causes the ABS to switch off.
To reactivate the ABS, the vehicle must be stopped and the ignition switched off. The ABS
is reactivated when the vehicle is switched on again. The ABS lamp goes out when you start
off.
In the "MTC/ABS" menu, ABS can be switched off manually.
Info
After the ignition is switched back on, ABS is reactivated.
