motorcycle banked for corner-
ing, it 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 helps make the mo-
torcycle even safer for riding
on public roads. When the
brakes are applied because of
an unforeseen hazard when
the motorcycle is banked for
cornering, within the physical
limits that apply to motorcyc-
ling the system prevents the
wheels from locking and skid-
ding away.
ABS Pro was not
developed to enhance
individual braking performance
with the motorcycle banked
into corners.
