Vehicle Hold Control (VHC)
The Multistrada ABS is provided with the Vehicle Hold
Control (VHC). This system, when activated, keeps
the vehicle at a standstill by quickly activating the rear
brake with no need to apply braking power to the
brake lever or pedal. The system allows the user to
enjoy a more comfortable restart while just having to
control the clutch and throttle pressure.
This function is activated when the user, with a bike at
a standstill and with folded side stand, applies a high
pressure on the front or rear brake levers. It can be
activated when vehicle is turned on (Key-ON). Upon
its activation, according to the vehicle status, the
system calculates and applies a pressure to the rear
system by acting on the pump and the ABS control
unit valves.
The system can be activated at all ABS levels
(including ABS OFF) and its activation is indicated by
the following warning light turning on. The same
warning light will start blinking when the system is
about to release the rear brake pressure and thus to
stop keeping the vehicle at standstill: pressure will be
decreased gradually.

Note
This function is disabled when the user starts or
pulls the front brake lever twice in close sequence or
after 9 seconds from the activation, or when the user
opens the side stand.
Warning
The system can not be compared with a parking
brake: during its activation we recommend keeping
your hands on the handlebar in order to take control of
the vehicle as soon as the system is disabled.
