Cornering ABS upgrade for existing 1199 owners?

Agreed...and if you are trail braking and then require even more stopping force knowing you have Abs that will actually work in this scenario would be awesome...

Now I just need to learn how to ride this bike properly...

They tell me new tyres are the biggest risk factor

ah,

I just read more on the cornering ABS. " It will not only prevent locking up the wheels (Max pressure) but it will also determine how smoothly the ABS system intervenes in the braking process, to enable the best possible stopping power under the circumstances. "The system pulls in data from the front and rear wheel speed sensors, brake pressure sensors, and the roll, yaw and transverse acceleration sensors from the bike's traction control system to get a very accurate picture of how fast the bike is turning, and how far it's leaned over". Incredible stuff. A whole new way of riding. Just hope those algorithms and look up tables are correct

It won't matter much as the result will be the same as if you didn't have it anyway.

Thank you so much guys for the responses. It's awesome how I can get such valuable input from other Duc owners in such a short span of time.


After reading through one thing I realized is that it looks like the possibility of having an upgrade to the existing ABS is really low.


Oh well, if I did have the DWC and cornering ABS mine wouldn't be a proper 1199 I guess.

Given the major jump in changes the Jap manufacturers have made with their new models (most of them copied from Ducati and BMW especially the TFT displays and the tail section) I wonder if Ducati and other European companies will step up their game even more and make upgrades every 2 years like with the 1299.


Cheers!
