front and rear brakes independently.

the vehicle.
3. The hydraulic unit assembly, which is the main component of the ABS, is centrally located on the
vehicle to increase mass centralization.

The operation of the Yamaha ABS brakes is the same as conventional brakes on other vehicles, with
a brake lever for operating the front brake and a brake pedal for operating the rear brake.
When wheel lock is detected during emergency braking, hydraulic control is performed by the hydraulic
system on the front and rear brakes independently.
