BRAKE SYSTEM 12

Info
The motorcycle has an additional 5-D sensor. The 5-D sensor
makes the ABS control dependent on the angle of inclination and
pitch. This can prevent locking and slipping of the wheels during
braking when the vehicle is inclined (riding in curves) within the
physical limitations.
