What is the difference between ABS and CBS on motorcycles?

[Neil]

Here are the differences between ABS and CBS on motorcycles: Functional aspects: CBS does not have an anti-lock function. This system can only reasonably distribute braking force between the front and rear wheels. The core function of CBS braking is that when the rider operates either the front brake or the rear brake alone, both wheels receive appropriate and effective braking force. ABS has an anti-lock function, which prevents wheel lock-up during heavy braking. The role of ABS is to automatically control the braking force during vehicle braking, ensuring the wheels do not lock up and maintain a rolling-sliding state, thereby maximizing the adhesion between the wheels and the road. Principle aspects: The ABS system is an anti-lock braking system that prevents wheel lock-up during emergency braking at high speeds by applying intermittent braking (pulse braking). This means it provides braking effect without locking the wheels, thus preventing skidding during emergency braking at high speeds and ensuring driving safety. The CBS system refers to the combined braking system, which links the front and rear brakes. The principle of this system is that when braking, if both front and rear brakes are applied simultaneously, the vehicle achieves the shortest braking distance. Therefore, some manufacturers link the rear brake to the front brake.
