ABS (for ABS models)
The Yamaha ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) features a dual electronic
control system, which acts on the
front and rear brakes independently.
The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will have recourse to manual
braking if a malfunction occurs.

WARNING
G
The ABS performs best on long
braking distances.
G
On certain (rough or gravel)
roads, the braking distance
may be longer with than wit-
hout
the
ABS.
Therefore,
always keep a sufficient distan-
ce to the vehicle ahead to
match the riding speed.
G
When the ABS is activated, the
brakes are operated in the usual
way. A pulsating action may be
felt at the brake lever or brake
pedal, but this does not indicate
a malfunction.
