- Antilock brake systems suitable for use on a motorcycle were investigated under an experimental safety motorcycle program.Due to program constraints, the only systems investigated were those already perfected by brake system manufacturers.This enabled utilization of the latest state-of-the-art principles to accomplish the desired result in the shortest time.Various types of systems and power sources were investigated. The system chosen for the motorcycle application was a fluid powered system in conjunction with a production hydraulic disc brake. Laboratory and field tests have been conducted with results exceeding expectations.
