A method and a device for detecting the initiation of a starting process of a motorcycle are disclosed. The method includes the step of acquiring a throttle valve angle (&#x3b1;), an engine speed (n) or both the throttle valve angle (&#x3b1;) and the engine speed (n). The method further includes the step of analyzing the throttle valve angle (&#x3b1;), the engine speed (n) or both the throttle valve angle (&#x3b1;) and the engine speed (n) to detect the initiation of the starting process of the motorcycle. The device includes both a means for acquiring and a means for analyzing the throttle valve angle (&#x3b1;), the engine speed (n) or both the throttle valve angle (&#x3b1;) and the engine speed (n).

An electronic brake system and a method for regulating the brake pressure in an electronically-controlled brake system of a motorcycle are provided. The method includes the step of actively building a brake pressure in a wheel brake circuit to prevent a motorcycle from moving. The method further includes the step of maintaining the brake pressure in the wheel brake circuit once (i) the motorcycle comes to a standstill or is at a standstill or is approximately at a standstill, and (ii) an activation condition is fulfilled.

In a method of changing the trigger threshold of a brake stand-by function of a vehicle brake, the brake stand-by function generates brake pressure in wheel brakes without application of a brake pedal. The trigger threshold value for the brake stand-by function is determined by the following steps: The method allows reducing the number of spurious releases of the brake stand-by function, which a sportive driving style brings about. In another embodiment of the method, the position of the accelerator pedal is used to change the trigger threshold value for the brake stand-by function.
