ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
How does ABS work?
The amount of braking force
that can be transferred to the
road depends on factors that
include the coefficient of fric-
tion of the road surface. Loose
stones, ice and snow or a wet
road all have much lower coef-
ficients of friction than a clean,
dry asphalt surface. The lower
the coefficient of friction, the
longer the braking distance.
If the rider increases braking
pressure to the extent that
braking force exceeds the max-
imum transferable limit, the
wheels start to lock and the
motorcycle loses its directional
stability. A fall is imminent. Be-
fore this situation can occur,
ABS intervenes and adapts
brake pressure to the max-
imum transferable brake force,
so the wheels continue to turn
and driving stability is main-
tained irrespective of the con-
dition of the road surface.
What are the effects of
surface irregularities?
Humps and surface irregular-
ities can cause the wheels to
lose contact temporarily with
the road surface; if this hap-
pens the braking force that
can be transmitted to the road
can drop to zero. If the brakes
are applied under these cir-
cumstances the ABS has to
reduce braking force to en-
sure that directional stability
is maintained when the wheels
regain contact with the road
surface. At this instant the ABS
must assume an extremely low
coefficient of friction, so that
the wheels will continue to ro-
tate under all imaginable cir-
cumstances, because this is
the precondition for ensuring
directional stability. As soon
as is registers the actual cir-
cumstances, the system reacts
instantly and adjusts braking
force accordingly to achieve
optimum braking.
Rear wheel lift
Even under severe braking, a
high level of tyre grip can mean
that the front wheel does not
lock up until very late, if at all.
Consequently, ABS does not
intervene until very late, if at
all. Under these circumstances
