Abstract

An anti-lock system for motorcycles which includes a monitoring circuit (3) nd an overbraking preventer (4) which compares the front-wheel brake pressure continuously during the reloading phases with a pressure reference threshold and if the threshold is exceeded, with simultaneous exceeding of a high vehicle deceleration threshold, transmits a control signal to the monitoring circuit (3). The control signal results in the pressure modulator (1) only very slowly increasing the front wheel brake pressure.
