TVS launched the Apache RTR 180 ABS version a few months back.
Some details of the ABS Verison
* Weight: 1.2 kg
* Two small discs mounted onto both wheels of the motorcycle with the brake disc.
* Each disc connected to two non magnetic sensors
* HECU (Hydraulic and Electronic Control Unit), mounted behind engine. Receives pulses from sensors every 1 millisecond to monitor wheel speed.
* Pump housed in HECU which regulates oil pressure acting on callipers acting on both ends.
When there is a sudden drop in the wheel speed during braking, HECU regulates brake pressure through its digital valves to avoid wheel lock-up. The information is given to the control unit from the signals of the front wheel. Now the best part is that you can control this beast by just by a push button on dashboard.LED on the dashboard tells the biker when he is backed up by the ABS or not.
