If the wheel of a motor-cycle is overbraked, lock-up and vehicle instability rapidly occurs. Capsize with vehicle damage and rider injury is likely to follow. Anti-lock braking has been available for many years on more stable vehicles such as cars and trucks but nothing for motor-cycles even though TRRL demonstrated its worth in 1964. The specification for a motor-cycle system is particularly stringent with severe constraints on cost, size, appearance, environment etc. A non-electronic system which meets the necessary parameters is described together with results from a wide range of road surface conditions.
