Motion Track Brake System
(V-STROM 1050XT)
This model is equipped with a system
called the "Motion Track Brake System".
This system controls ABS braking
according to the motorcycle bank angle
while the motorcycle is cornering. The
system prevents wheel locking, within a
certain range, if excessive or quick
braking is applied. This supports the
rider's ability to follow the intended line
of travel.
Even though ABS helps prevent wheel
lock-up, you must still be careful when
braking in curves. Hard braking while
turning could cause wheel skidding and
loss of control, whether or not your motor-
cycle is equipped with ABS.
Having ABS does not mean you can
take unnecessary risks. ABS will not
compensate for poor judgment, incor-
rect braking techniques, or not slowing
down over bad roads or in poor weather
conditions.
You must still ride sensibly and alertly.
 WARNING
The motion track brake system con-
trols ABS braking according to bank
angle when the brakes are applied
while cornering. However, it is not
able to control horizontal sliding
beyond physical limits. Over reliance
on ABS may cause unforeseen
crashes.
Ride carefully, without relying too
much on ABS.
