ABS (for ABS models)
This model’s ABS (anti-lock brake sys-
tem) acts on the front brake system.
Operate the brakes as you normally
would with a conventional brake sys-
tem. If the ABS is activated, a pulsating
sensation may be felt at the front brake
lever. In this situation, continue to ap-
ply the brakes and let the ABS work; do
not release and re-apply the brakes
(i.e., pump the brakes) as this will re-
duce braking effectiveness.
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.
On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer with
the ABS than without.
The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.
