Abs (Anti-Lock Brake System) - Abs Models Only - Triumph Daytona 675 Owner's Handbook Manual

ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) -
ABS Models Only
Warning
ABS prevents the wheels from locking,
therefore maximizing the effectiveness of
the braking system in emergencies and
when riding on slippery surfaces. The
potentially shorter braking distances ABS
allows under certain conditions are not a
substitute for good riding practice.
Always ride within the legal speed limit.
Never ride without due care and attention
and always reduce speed in consideration
of weather, road and traffic conditions.
Take care when cornering. If the brakes are
applied in a corner, ABS will not be able to
counteract the weight and momentum of
the motorcycle. This can result in loss of
control and an accident.
Under some circumstances it is possible
that a motorcycle equipped with ABS may
require a longer stopping distance than an
equivalent motorcycle without ABS.
How to Ride the Motorcycle
Warning
Even under severe braking, high tire grip
levels can mean that the front wheel does
not have a tendency to lock up until high
levels of deceleration have been reached.
Furthermore, ABS cannot be relied on in
all circumstances to prevent the rear wheel
from lifting off the ground, therefore under
these circumstances, it may be possible for
the rear wheel to lift off the ground. This
can result in loss of motorcycle control and
an accident and
aggressive braking must be avoided.
