ABS operation and vehicle control
If the ABS starts operating, there is a tendency of the wheel to lock, and the vehicle is approaching the
limit of control. To make the rider aware of this condition, the ABS has been designed to generate a
reaction-force pulsating action in the brake lever and brake pedal independently.
TIP
When the ABS is activated, a pulsating action may be felt at the brake lever or brake pedal, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.
The higher the side force on a tire, the less traction there is available for braking. This is true whether
the vehicle is equipped with ABS or not. Therefore, sudden braking while cornering is not recommend-
ed. Excessive side force, which ABS cannot prevent, could cause the tire to slip sideways.
WARNING
EWA1XC1004
The braking of the vehicle, even in the worst case, is principally executed when the vehicle is
advancing straight ahead. During a turn, sudden braking is liable to cause a loss of traction of
the tires. Even in vehicles equipped with ABS, overturning of the vehicle cannot be prevented
if it is braked suddenly.
The ABS functions to prevent the tendency of the wheel to lock by controlling the brake fluid pressure.
However, if there is a tendency of the wheel to lock on a slippery road surface, due to engine braking,
the ABS may not be able to prevent the wheel from locking.
WARNING
EWA13870
The ABS controls only the tendency of the wheel to lock caused by applying the brakes. The
ABS cannot prevent wheel lock on slippery surfaces, such as ice, when it is caused by engine
braking, even if the ABS is operating.
