Offroad ABS is specifically designed for riding on gravel or dirt roads. It adjusts the ABS functionality to give riders more control in off-road conditions.These adjustments are designed to enhance your riding experience in off-road conditions, providing you with more control and safety.
- Rear Wheel ABS Deactivation: ABS is deactivated on the rear wheel, allowing it to lock up. The front wheel is allowed some slip before the ABS intervenes, which is essential for riding on loose surfaces like gravel or dirt.
- Rear Wheel Lock and Drift: The rider can lock the rear wheel, which is crucial for drifting into corners on dirt roads.
- Rear Wheel Lift-Up Detection Disabled: Normally, if the rear wheel lifts, the ABS reduces the front brake pressure to stabilize the bike. In Offroad ABS, rear wheel lift is allowed, maintaining front brake pressure until excessive front wheel slip is detected.
Additionally, Cornering ABS is Disabled:
- Cornering ABS usually limits brake pressure to ensure stability while leaning. In Offroad ABS, this functionality is disabled, allowing riders to apply more brake pressure even at higher lean angles.
The deactivation of these functions in Offroad ABS provides more control in offroad terrain, enabling advanced riders to brake harder before ABS activation. However, it also demands a significantly higher skill level to maintain control in all situations.
