Abstract
A method for controlling a drive for displacing a saddle into a travel or a mounting position, comprising measuring an acceleration and a lateral inclination of the two-wheeled vehicle continuously within a first time interval and a speed of the two-wheeled vehicle after the first time interval; carrying out a first acceleration comparison, which checks whether the acceleration is greater than a minimum positive acceleration, at least for a second time interval; carrying out a first speed comparison if the first acceleration comparison is positive, the first speed comparison checks whether the speed is higher than a minimum speed; displacing the saddle into the travel position if the first speed comparison is positive; and carrying out a second acceleration comparison if the first acceleration comparison is negative, the second acceleration comparison checks whether the acceleration is less than a minimum negative acceleration at least for a third time interval.
