The MSC motorcycle stability control system is based on a Bosch ABS plus an electronic composite brake function. All the rider has to do is apply the front or back brake. The system automatically applies the second brake, ensuring that the best possible braking force is applied to each wheel.
A lean-angle sensor measures the actual lean of the motorcycle allowing the system to instantaneously adjust its electronic braking and acceleration interventions to suit the current riding status. In this way, it provides the best possible support in bends (corners).
Given that nearly 50% of fatal motorcycle accidents happen in a bend, this is especially important. Precise regulation offers a smooth progression in brake pressure as the rider leans in for the corner, as well as boosting deceleration on the straight.
By analyzing tilt rate and linear acceleration, the system can tell sooner when the front or rear wheel is about to lift off, allowing MSC to intervene with a corrective action. Brake force is distributed flexibly and fast between the front and rear wheel according to the driving situation, ensuring the safest and best possible deceleration.

Current ABS algorithms do not consider the side inclination, and are, therefore, not able to adapt the antilock braking function during cornering. For this reason, Bosch has developed a stability control system for high-performance motorcycles that works in all situations: during both braking and accelerating, and while either riding straight or while cornering.
