ABSABSThe Yamaha ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) features a dual electronic
control system, which acts on the
front and rear brakes independently.
The ABS securely controls wheel
lockup during emergency braking on
changing road surfaces and under
various weather conditions, thereby
maximizing tire adhesion and perfor-
mance while providing a smooth
braking action. The ABS is monitored
by an ECU (Electronic Control Unit),
which will have recourse to manual
braking if a malfunction occurs.

The ABS performs best on
long braking distances.
8 8
On certain (rough or gravel)
roads, the braking distance
may be longer with than with-
out the ABS. Therefore, always
keep a sufficient distance to
the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed.
NOTE:
8When the ABS is activated, the
brakes are operated in the usual
way. A pulsating action may be
felt at the brake levers, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.
8This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsating at the brake levers
when the ABS is operating.
However, special tools are
required, so please consult your
Yamaha dealer when performing
this test.
