Considerations for Improvement of Conventional Motorcycle Brake Systems 810408
Factors involved in improving motorcycle brake systems and components are reviewed. Component and system functional requirements are reviewed from the standpoints of manual control factors, performance, and required operating conditions. Component response properties of example contemporary machines are presented. Results show that, for motorcycle hydraulic disc systems, hysteresis, wet disc response, and other response features related to manual control can be key factors.
