• excellent braking performance with good feedback to the rider

• caliper is mounted on the underside of the swingarm to reduce torque action for superior suspension performance

• ABS braking offers excellent control under hard braking or braking on wet or slippery surfaces
• controlling ECU & hydraulic unit are combined into a single compact unit allowing for mass centralization & reduced weight
• when ABS system senses impending wheel lock-up (via active type wheel sensors) it regulates the hydraulic brake pressure to the point just before the wheel(s) lock-up
• UBS system "unifies or links" the front & rear brakes when brakes are applied
• applying front brake will engage the UBS & to a varying degree will apply some rear brake force
• applying rear brake will activate rear brake & to a varying degree will apply some front brake force
• linked brakes may improve stopping power by accurately balancing front & rear brake pressures according to natural weight transfer

• full range of warning & indicator lights including cruise & traction control status
• speedo can be changed to display either kilometers or miles per hour

• reduces the possibility of "ride away" theft
• system must recognize the "coded ignition key" in order for the unit to start
• if the immobilizer ignition does not recognize the key (or a thief's screwdriver or other type of "jimmy tool") the bike will not start even if the ignition is turned or forced into the on position
• if the system does not recognize the coded chip in the ignition key, it will not allow the ignition system, fuel pump or starter motor to function.

Note: The FJR1300ES offers a significant level of power & performance. It is not intended for novice or inexperienced riders.
