Different story on perspectives of other cars. Uncrashable is over stated.
Cagers don’t have to worry about falling over in the corners and those
pricks crash all the time. Amazing technology but try not to overhype it.
Amazing. Could you do a more in depth video. In particular on wet surfaces.
Cheers
now do all them tests in the wet
the challenge will be accepted only when a woman rides it, if the bike
don’t crash under the hands of a woman then nothing can crash it
impressive but you shouldnt state is as “Uncrashable”
Where are the hows and whys? You need to get more informative.
Bring on the “idiots!”

I bet you I can crash it if I want to.. :P
Who does not want beter brakes? why the haters?
holy shit, imagine how late you could brake into a corner with that.
Good judgement comes from bad judgement. Bad judgement on a bike can be
fatal. Neanderthals who think installing safety equipment like ABS on
bikes is for pussies should should pack their own parachutes, ride naked
over broken glass, shag the nastiest prostitutes on earth without
protection and criticize the inlaws cooking. Go ahead tough guy. Be a
man.
why would a rider brake hard during a bend. thats sucide
great technology, I would buy this bike for this feature.
WOW
Who brakes in a bend anyways?
MSC really works well in close calls. It save my arse at least 5 times when
I should have skidded with a normal adventure bike, lol~ >.>
god smacked at the comments on here.
yes a good skilled rider knows how to brake very well and safely, and
under most circumstances wouldnt even come close to using this system in
everyday riding.
i agree new riders shouldn’t just rely on this new system to bail them out
everyday.
i just can not understand why people are so anti technology that they
wouldnt want to use something that could save their lifes when the shit
hits the fan.
definition of an emergency
noun: emergency; plural noun: emergencies; noun: Emergency; noun: the
Emergency
1.
a serious, unexpected, and often dangerous situation requiring immediate
action.
“personal alarms for use in an emergency”
synonyms:
crisis, urgent situation, extremity, exigency;
peace
can someone explain this to me??? the difference between ABS and MSC, and
how does it work? sorry but im new to motorcycle
Test it on wet road and let us know will it be 100% safe.
What’s this? Another super short MCN video with zero real information? I’m
shocked, truly.
I’m an oldie and I myself wouldn’t use this or any ABS system on a bike…
except in the case of a modern bike, I personaly feel a modern bike should
have options for luxuries and new technology, but also an option not to
have it all.
This can save lives of not only the biker riding it but also other people
on the road! Some technologies are bad and some are good, if you like the
charm of the classic era then get one of those bikes and if you then like
to have som luxuries and modern equipment, then modernize the classic! Your
bike should be personal. :]
Some dingus would still manage to crash it .
No explanation. MCN very poor. What a waste of time.
Will this bosch abs system be available for other bikes in the future?
don’t brake or change gear around corners. keep a good steady speed
Can this Technology be fitted to any type of bikes?..I had an idea of this
concept yesterday.and now i see its already done..hahhaha..Pretty late..:)
the system is very good MCN, but dont call it “uncrashable”…people might
believe it..
Nice technology but should it really be called uncrashable?
que es mejor es estard abs o el msc ese?
so how it work.?
who needs abs, gotta love seeing the back of your bike left and right 😀
and that tire track you left
That is pretty awesome. I have a rule that I will not consider a bike
without ABS. Now I think I’ll be looking for MSC.
put training wheels if u want an uncrashable bike.
Funzionerà davvero?
Is the bike also “unsinkable”?

I am a track racer. Having these functions doesn’t mean you’re a pussy. On
track the traffic move in one direction and have plenty of space on the
side if you messed up. But on busy road, its not very forgiving…
Or just stay off your rear brake in the corner

I like that I’ve learned on non-ABS, but I almost died a few times learning
on it. People that only know ABS will learn improper technique most likely.
Who knows, maybe ABS will take over completely. Probably should.
That test rider has got some balls.
Technology moves on, and the luddites always complain. ABS, traction
control, stability control will rarely intervene unless it has detected a
loose nut on the steering. The same people complained about compulsory
seatbelts and in the USA, still complain about compulsory helmets. First
World? You see that VW have now incorporated automatic braking as standard?
That is the stuff that see’s through fog and will brake while you try to
sort out the howling rug rat on the back seat. Of course, being vulnerable
road users, we should be grateful. Good old Germans.
God help us… they making bikes easier to ride for idiots!
I don’t even have ABS on my Bike…
Just develop your skills about brakes and you’ll be able to ride every
bikes
So… what does it DO? Differently than any other ABS I mean? Not that I
want this, or even conventional ABS, nor combined braking, on any bike of
mine.
how does this make it “uncrashable”? the guy that named this video should
be fired.
