Anti-lock braking (ABS)
ABS benefits riders across risk profiles, providing a consistent safety advantage. Despite its existence since the late 1980s, ABS is not yet standard on all bikes.
Advanced assistance systems
Radar-based rider assistance systems have entered the scene, offering a range of safety features. These include lane change assist, adaptive cruise control, collision warning, and braking assistance. Motorcycle radar technology extends the detection range, surpassing the length of a football field.
Electronic throttles and cruise control
Mechanical solutions of the past, like throttle locks, are giving way to electronic throttles, colloquially known as "throttle by wire." This innovation enables electronic cruise control, allowing riders to set and maintain a fixed speed effortlessly. Electronic throttles also facilitate more responsive traction control systems, particularly beneficial in adverse weather conditions.
LED Headlights
Upgrading your motorcycle's traditional headlight, turn signals, and tail light to energy-efficient LED lights not only enhances the overall aesthetics of your ride but also significantly improves safety on the road. LED lights offer brighter and more focused illumination, ensuring increased visibility in various weather conditions and low-light environments. The quick response time of LEDs enhances the effectiveness of turn signals, reducing the likelihood of accidents due to delayed signaling. Additionally, LED lights have a longer lifespan and consume less power than conventional bulbs, providing a reliable and energy-efficient lighting solution. Investing in these upgrades not only modernizes your motorcycle's appearance but also contributes to a safer riding experience by making you more noticeable to other road users.
