ABS on Motorcycle-EXPLAINED

Image
ABS on motorcycles Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) means precise braking even when the bike is speeding up, without any wheel lock-ups. This ensures a confidence-inspiring ride and lets the rider enjoy the ride to the fullest. On a motorcycle, an anti-lock brake system prevents the wheels of a powered two-wheeler from locking during braking situations. Based on information from wheel speed sensors the ABS unit adjusts the pressure of the brake fluid in order to keep traction during deceleration to avoid accidents. Motorcycle ABS helps the rider to maintain stability during braking and to decrease the stopping distance. It provides traction even on low friction surfaces.  Basic principle Wheel speed sensors mounted on the front and rear wheel constantly measures the rotational speed of each wheel and deliver this information to an Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The ECU detects two things:  1) if the deceleration of one wheel exceeds a fixed threshold  2) whether the brake s...

Delta Box Frame

Image
Delta Box frame   Delta ( Δ ) is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. the frame mounting points hold the looks of a Delta/triangle and the construction of the frame is box/rectangle shape i.e.Cross-section of the frame is the box /Hence the name DELTA box frame. Delta box is a type of diamond frame created by Yamaha motors, this frame delivers superior rigidity balance. This type of frame is currently used in YAMAHA’s R series of sports models.(R3 India does not share the delta box frame). The engine is mounted on rigid supports; one on the head side and two on the case side; so that the engine itself becomes a structural member contributing to body strength and rigidity. The engine’s low vibration makes rigid supports possible, These characteristics of this frame made it suitable for R badging and used in Moto GP bikes. Company Released Image The frame achieves excellent torsional rigidity by making the lines connecting the top and bottom of the head pipe*1 to the rear sw...
