function
NOTICE
The Dynamic Brake Control func-
tion is active in all riding modes
except Enduro Pro when the
ABS is switched on.
The Dynamic Brake Control func-
tion helps the driver in the event
of emergency braking.
Detection of emergency
braking
Emergency braking is detected
when the front wheel brake is
applied quickly and with force.
Behavior during emergency
braking
If emergency braking is
applied at a speed of more
than 10 km/h, in addition
to the ABS function the
Dynamic Brake Control
function will also be activated.
In the event of partial braking
with high brake pressure gra-
dients, Dynamic Brake Control
will increase the integral brake
pressure on the rear wheel.
This shortens the braking dis-
tance, enabling controlled brak-
ing.
Behavior in the event of
accidental activation of the
throttle grip
If the throttle grip is acciden-
tally activated during emer-
gency braking (throttle posi-
tion >5%), the intended brak-
ing effect is ensured by the
Dynamic Brake Control by
shutting off the gas. This en-
sures activation of emergency
braking.
If the gas is shut off (throttle
position <5%) during
the intervention of the
Dynamic Brake Control, the
engine torque required by the
ABS brake system will be
restored.
If the emergency braking
is stopped and the throttle
grip is still activated, the
Dynamic Brake Control
reduces the engine torque
down as required by the driver
in a controlled manner.
NOTICE
When the ABS is switched off,
the Dynamic Brake Control func-
tion is switched off at the same
time.
