Instruments, Features and Controls

Brakes

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)

The anti-lock brake system automatically reduces or increases brake pressure as needed to provide optimum braking

control, reducing the chance of wheel lock-up during hard braking events or when braking on rough, uneven, slippery or

loose surfaces. See page 10.
1. The anti-lock brake system cannot be turned off.
2. The ABS indicator always illuminates when vehicle power is turned on. It remains illuminated until the anti-lock system

activates, which occurs when vehicle speed exceeds 6 MPH (10 km/h).

3. When the lamp is illuminated, the anti-lock brakes will not activate, but the conventional brake system will continue to

operate normally.

4. When the anti-lock brakes engage during a braking event, the rider will feel pulsing at the brake levers. Continue to

apply steady pressure to the brakes for the best stopping performance.

5. If the ABS light does not come on when the key is turned to the ON or PARK position, see your authorized INDIAN

MOTORCYLE dealer for service.
