Warning
Danger of accidents Changes to the vehicle impair the
function of the ABS.
–
Do not make any changes to the suspension travel.
–
Only use spare parts on the brake system which have
been approved and recommended by Husqvarna
Motorcycles.
–
Only use tires/wheels approved by Husqvarna Motor-
cycles with the corresponding speed index.
–
Maintain the specified tire pressure.
–
Ensure that service work and repairs are performed
professionally. (Your authorized Husqvarna Motorcy-
cles workshop will be glad to help.)
The ABS is a safety system that prevents locking of the wheels
when driving straight ahead without the influence of lateral
forces.
Warning
Danger of accidents Driving aids can reduce the prob-
ability of a fall only within physical limits.
It is not always possible to compensate for extreme rid-
ing situations, for example with luggage loaded with
a high center of gravity, varying road surfaces, steep
descents or full braking without disengaging the gear.
–
Adapt your riding style to the road conditions and
your driving ability.
The ABS operates with two independent brake circuits (front and
rear brakes). During normal operation, the brake system operates
like a conventional brake system without ABS. When the ABS
control unit detects a locking tendency in a wheel, ABS begins
regulating the brake pressure. The control function causes a
slight pulsing of the hand and foot brake levers.

The ABS warning lamp must light up after the ignition is
switched on and go out after starting off. If it does not go out
after starting off or if it lights up while riding, this indicates a
malfunction in the ABS. In this case, the ABS is no longer
enabled and the wheels may lock during braking. The brake
system itself stays functional; only ABS control is not available.
The ABS warning lamp may also light up if the rotating speeds
of the front and rear wheels differ greatly under extreme riding
conditions, for example when making "wheelies" or if the rear
wheel spins. This causes the ABS to switch off.
To reactivate the ABS, stop the vehicle and switch off the igni-
tion. The ABS is reactivated when the vehicle is switched on
again. The ABS warning lamp goes out when you start off.
