BMW brings first curve ABS in SuperSport motorcycle
BMW BMW now also equips its super athletes with curve ABS
While electronic security systems such as ESP have become self-evident in the car, motorcycles are much more difficult to adapt appropriate programs. BMW has now done another small step.
ABS for motorcycles is nothing new. The first manufacturer BMW now equips a super sport motorcycle with an ABS, which prevents even when braking in curves prevents wheel blockades and therefore can be delayed. That "SECTION" Pro complements the Race ABS already presented in 2009 in the S 1000RR; It is reserved for the time being presented to the super-sporty peak model HP4 presented in the meantime, where it can be installed after autumn 2014 for the price of 380 €.
ABS Pro was deliberately designed for use on public roads, according to BMW, whereever unexpectedly dangers can lurk. According to the manufacturer, it prevents the wheels from blocking the wheels even during rapid brake operation and thus reduces abrupt steering power changes, especially in fright brakes and thus the unwanted installation of the vehicle.

25 years abs in motorcycle: long line
Adaptation to the slackage
Technically considered, ABS Pro fits the ABS control depending on the respective driving situation to the sluggish angle of the motorcycle. For the determination of the wearing position of the motorcycle, the signals for rolling and yaw rate as well as lateral acceleration of the sensor cluster, which is already used for the dynamic traction control DTC and for the electronic chassis DDC Dynamic Damping Control, are used.
With increasing inclination, the brake pressure gradient is always limited at the start of the brake start. As a result, the pressure build-up takes place slower. In addition, the print modulation in the area of ABS control is more uniform. A sensitive response and high braking and driving stability at the best possible delay also in curves are the benefits of ABS PRO for the driver.
The influence of the ABS control by ABS PRO is configured depending on the drive mode. So ABS Pro is only available in the driving modes "Rain" and "Sport". For the race track mode "Race" and "Slick" the additional function is deactivated.
