Anti-jerk

When a rider is going around a bend with 0% acceleration and starts to accelerate again, there is a problem: the sprockets have to be reactivated and move from neutral to pushing the motorbike forward. The chain and transmission system are not perfectly fixed, but are a little flexible. This causes a noticeable jerk effect when in use which can make the motorbike skid or even fall if it is on an incline or in a tricky position.

To avoid this, the anti-jerk system softens the impact as much as possible. The anti-jerk maps are simple and do not usually work for more than 50 milliseconds, just as the rider accelerates. The sensors that interact with this program also monitor the amount of gas that the rider uses, the speed of the back wheel, and the engine. If either of the latter two detects a sharp increase that would cause an excessive amount of jerking, the system adjusts the pressure on the motor by a certain percentage, which can sometimes reach 100%. All of this happens in the blink of an eye — just enough to soften the jerking movement.
