the system is very good MCN, but dont call it "uncrashable"...people might believe it..

[anon-exrm]

all they need now is a bike that picks up on people texting around them and honks a 200db horn.

[ChrisCopeful]

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.

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. 

[sumofl]

holy shit, imagine how late you could brake into a corner with that.

[opmike]

What's this? Another super short MCN video with zero real information? I'm shocked, truly. 

[WRLondon]

Amazing how far the technology in motorbike braking has come over the past few years
just puzzling why its a decade behind cars really!

[englishmanbo]

Who does not want beter brakes? why the haters?

[Eibli]

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~ >.>

One thing, if you are not going that fast in the first place or not I don't even want to start this conversation, but of course the better electronic aid the better but I'm also leaning towards better knowledge on how to ride period.

[seapeddler]

The simpler solution would be to ban corners.
STOP MAKING TURNS !

[Hokum_Paints]

That's all very nice, but how does it work?

[xchalibur]

I want to see a good test done on the rain, and then we're talking.

[venkat]

I thought combined ABS could already do that since it gives a more even braking distribution which is what allows for cornering braking.

[BurOzt]

great technology, I would buy this bike for this feature.

[robinduffort]

I don't even have ABS on my Bike... 
Just develop your skills about brakes and you'll be able to ride every bikes

[ehammerfyst]

How the heck did you guys get that on a Honda VFR800?

[sergiyivantsov]

who needs abs, gotta love seeing the back of your bike left and right :D and that tire track you left 

[greglynn]

Nice technology but should it really be called uncrashable?

[Hours]

I'm interested to see where this goes.
