A spokesman said: “BMW has been made aware of two rider training incidents where, after repeated emergency braking excercises, a motorcycle’s ABS system failed to activate.”

He said initial investigations suggest it’s a battery fault and that “no real world case of ABS failure, in any situation, is known to us.”
