Kawasaki Intelligent anti-lock Brake System (KIBS) offers enhanced braking stability (ABS performance equivalent to the current model) to supersportmodels, which pitch more than most motorcycles and also offers high-precision front and rear brake pressure control (high-precision ABS) for sport riding.
Precise control of the ABS operation decreases kickback to the brake lever and brake pedal during braking compared to the conventional system.
In addition to the front and rear wheel sensors in a conventional ABS, KIBS monitors a number of parameters: front caliper hydraulic pressure and information from the FI ECU (engine speed, throttle position, gear position, and clutch actuation).
KIBS uses an all-new BOSCH hydraulic unit which was designed specifically for motorcycle use.
The new design is small and light weight (45% less volume and 800g lighter than current units). The unit is located close to the motorcycle’s center of gravity, behind the engine cylinder and above the sprocket cover.
System ComponentsFront Wheel Rotation Sensor Signal (Service Code 27)
Front Wheel Rotation Sensor Signal Inspection
The front wheel rotation sensor sends the signal to the
ECU through the KIBS hydraulic unit (KIBS equipped
models). For other than KIBS equipped models, the
signal is sent directly to the ECU.
The ECU uses the wheel rotation sensor signal for KTRC

Piston Removal
Remove:
Crankshaft (see Crankshaft Removal)
Remove the piston together with the connecting rod to the
cylinder head side.
