Abstract
Results of an evaluation of possible advanced brake components and systems for motorcycles are reviewed. Potential improved conventional brake components included: friction materials aimed at improving wet brake performance; and components affecting brake system feel properties. A prototype all-mechanical antilock brake system was evaluated. Results showed improvements in performance may be realized via all three of these areas, based on prototype results that might apply to future designs.
