Abstract
A target slippage ratio setting device has sensors respectively mounted on driven and driving wheels so as to detect rotational velocities thereof, a body accelerometer attached to a main body of a vehicle, a steering angle sensor mounted on a handle, and a control unit. In the target slippage ratio setting device, a target slippage ratio at which the optimum braking force is obtained, can be determined from a coefficient of friction calculated by a friction coefficient calculating circuit, a banking angle calculated by a banking angle calculating circuit and an estimated velocity of the vehicle calculated by an estimated vehicle velocity calculating circuit, based on the peripheral velocities of the front and rear wheels and the acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle.
