Abstract
An antilock brake control system for a motorcycle having front and rear wheels includes detectors for detecting front and rear wheel velocities, and a calculator for calculating an estimated velocity of the motorcycle. The calculator also calculates a slippage of the front and rear wheels relatively to the estimated motorcycle velocity. The amount of slippage is corrected by a compensation amount determined by the detection of various situations such as presence and absence of antilock control applied to front or rear wheel and presence and absence of brake applied to front or rear wheel.
