to suit the rider's individual
needs and preferences.
Possibility of a fall not
precluded
Although ABS Pro and Dynamic
Brake Control provide the rider
with valuable assistance and
constitute a huge advance in
safety for braking with the mo-
torcycle banked for cornering,
they cannot under any circum-
stances be considered as re-
defining the physical limits that
apply to motorcycling. It is still
possible for these limits to be
overshot due to misjudgement
or rider error. In extreme cases
this can result in a crash.
Use on public roads
ABS Pro and Dynamic Brake
Control help make the motor-
cycle even safer for riding on
public roads. When the brakes
are applied because of an un-
foreseen hazard when the mo-
torcycle is banked for corner-
ing, within the physical limits
that apply to motorcycling the
ABS Pro system prevents the
wheels from locking and skid-
ding away. In emergency brak-
ing, Dynamic Brake Control in-
creases the braking effect and
intervenes if the throttle grip is
accidentally turned during brak-
ing.
ABS Pro was not
developed to enhance
individual braking performance
with the motorcycle banked
into corners.
