More riding comfort and safety with Bosch’s semi-active damping control unit

  •   Bosch is now further enhancing safety and comfort with semi-active damping control functions

  •   Bosch SDCU semi-active damping control unit to be launched in a powersports vehicle in 2017

  •   Optimized vehicle control enhances safety, comfort, and vehicle dynamics

    Milan, Italy – Motorcycle ABS, MSC motorcycle stability control, and side view assist: for more than two decades, #bosch has been continuously improving two- wheeler and powersports safety systems. At this year’s #eicma, the Milan Bicycle and Motorcycle Exhibition, #bosch will be presenting its new SDCU semi-active damping control unit, the core component of semi-active damping control systems for two-wheelers and powersports vehicles. At the push of a button,

    the control unit allows riders to choose and configure suspension settings to match their preferences. “The SDCU adjusts actuators in the dampers to reduce vibration and improve not only riding safety, but also riding comfort,” says Geoff Liersch, head of the #bosch Two-Wheeler and Powersports business unit. The SDCU will be launched in a powersports vehicle in 2017.

    Greater riding stability and comfort

    The integration of the SDCU will further optimize the handling of two-wheelers and powersports vehicles and enhance other comfort and safety functions. Upper body control function, for instance, improves stability on uneven roads and thus makes for a more comfortable ride. Also on the subject of comfort and convenience, the ride-height controls on the handlebar or steering wheel allow the seat height of two-wheelers or powersports vehicles to be adjusted electronically.
