Method of anti-lock brake control for motorcycle vehicle
First Claim
1. A method of anti-lock brake control in a motorcycle vehicle or the like, said method comprising the steps ofmeasuring the rotational speed of the wheels of the motorcycle vehicle and determining at least one of the parameters slip and retardation of a braked wheel,comparing the at least one measured parameter with a given threshold value,changing a pressure of the brake at the braked wheel in response to said comparison during anti-lock brake control,determining the position of lateral inclination of the motorcycle vehicle andchanging said threshold value in response to said determined lateral inclination of said motorcycle vehicle.

Abstract
In an anti-lock brake system (ABS) for a motorcycle the driving stabilty is improved by measuring the position of lateral inclination of the motorcycle and adjusting at least one threshold value for the anti-skid control in response to the measurement. In another embodiment the transverse acceleration of the motor cycle is measured and an ABS threshold value adjusted accordingly.
