Antilock braking system 02

The reliability and performance of your motorcycle depends on the special care and restrain exercised during the

running-in period. It is especially important that you avoid operating the engine in high speed (RPM), which could expose

the engine parts to excessive stress. Recommended speed during the running-in is:

Maximum 50 km/h speed upto 750 km (vary the engine speed for better mating of parts).

The first service at 500 ~ 750 km is most important. During running-in period all the engine components and other parts

will have set in. All adjustments to be restored, all fasteners to be tightened. Engine cum transmission oil to be replaced.

Timely performance of the first service will ensure optimum service life and performance from the engine.

The first 1000 km is a crucial part of your motorcycle. Proper running-in operation during this period helps in ensuring a

maximum life and smooth performance of your motorcycle.

Replacing the engine cum transmission oil during first service is most important for better life of engine. Always use TVS

TRU4 FULLY SYNTHETIC oil (SAE 10W30 API-SL, JASO MA2) for better performance and life.

RUNNING-IN INFORMATION

SINGLE CHANNEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)

How does the ABS understands the wheel locking?

Your motorcycle is fitted with a single channel Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) in the front brake system which is

designed to prevent skidding and help riders to maintain steering control during emergency-stopping situation in dry or

wet roads, loose gravels etc.

So what the ABS does is actually limiting the braking force exerted by the rider by either squeezing the lever and keep the

wheel spinning. Once the imminence of the locking (and therefore skidding) is avoided, the system re-applies the

maximum braking force until the next skid is anticipated. By limiting the max force of the braking maneuver, the ABS

systems practically allow riders to use the greatest stopping force possible without locking the front wheels.

The ABS uses continuous wheel speed monitoring system; wheel speed sensor and toner ring and a Hydraulic

Electronic Control Unit (HECU).

During normal operation the ABS works similar to a normal brake, but functions only when the wheel tends to lock up.

The speed sensors fitted on front wheel measures the rotational speed of the wheel, when the wheel speed reduces

rapidly i.e. wheel tends to lock, the HECU modulates the pressure in the brake circuit and thereby prevents the wheel

from locking.

The slipping wheels on a riding surface results in losing control of whole motorcycle which usually occurs in fractions of a

second. Restoring traction while keeping the bike balanced is only a result of luck, or extreme training, as is the case of

professional stunt riders who drift. Preventing the wheels from slipping due to excessive braking force compensates

losing control and help the rider to maneuver the vehicle and to avoid accidents.

When a rider applies the front brakes continuously as he detects a dangerous obstacle in dry or wet roads, loose gravels

etc. transmits an excessive brake force to the wheel. This excessive force may cause the wheel to stop spinning and

leads to lose of road grip. With no firm contact between the tire’s contact patch and the road surface, the bike becomes

unstable and a crash is imminent.

How does ABS work?

Humps and irregular surfaces of the road can cause

the wheels to lose contact temporarily with the road

surface; if this happens the braking force that can be

transmitted to road surface is zero.

How the irregular road surface affects the

braking?

If the brakes are applied under these condition, the

ABS has to reduce the braking force to ensure and

maintain the directional stability when the wheels

regains its contact with the road surface. At this

instant the ABS must reduce the traction, so that the

wheels will continue to rotate under all imaginable

circumstances, because this is the precondition for

ensuring directional stability.

Why does brake lever pulsate during brake

application?

Vehicles fitted with ABS uses the conventional brake

system during normal operation. But during hard

stop the brake lever feels different, i.e., a rapid

pulsation in the brake lever; This is absolutely

normal.

As soon as the actual circumstances arises, the

system reacts instantly and adjusts braking force

accordingly to achieve optimum braking.

Only the front brake of your motorcycle is

fitted with ABS not the rear brake. Applying

rear brake alone can cause wheel skidding just

like normal braking system. Always apply both

front and rear brake for better performance.

The ABS can apply and release the pressure in the

brake circuit much faster than that rider can do with

brake lever to avoid wheel locking. So there is no

need to pump the brake, it requires only

continuous application.

Warning

SINGLE CHANNEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM

The Apache RTR 2004V with ABS does an automatic

self check every time the ignition switch is turned

‘ON’. The ABS warning lamp provided at the

speedometer console blinks and informs you that the

ABS is under check.

It is not necessary to have this pulsation feel every

time the brake is applied. Pulsations are felt only

during wheel locking tendency, occurs due to the

modulation of pressure in the brake circuit by HECU.

Pulsation means that the vehicle is in limit. This

pulsation feel also depends on the road condition.

This ABS warning lamps goes ‘OFF’ once the bike

reache 6 km/hs speed and above and ABS warning

lamp will blink whenever vehicle speed is less than

6 km/h indicating that the ABS is working fine. If the

warning lamp is continuously ‘ON’ even after the

vehicle crossing speed then ABS has an error 6 km/h

and your bike should be taken to any of your nearest

TVS Motor Company Authorised Distributors or

Dealers / Authorised Service Centers.

DO‘S AND DON'T‘S

t Apply both front and rear brake for better

performance.

t Carefully remove the front wheel during puncture

/ tyre replacement to prevent toner ring damage /

bend.

t ABS should be serviced only at TVS Motor

Company Authorised Distributors or Dealers /

Authorised Service Centers.

t Check the ABS warning lamp for any warning

before driving the vehicle.

t Apply continuous brake in ABS mode for better

performance. Do not pump.

t Perform the periodic maintenance as per the

schedule.
