The security of ABS - At the core of the Ducati Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) is
an advanced electronic processor that senses wheel slip. ABS is a supplemental
safety system that assists in preventing tire lock-up in emergency and low
traction situations. The Ducati ABS system has been tuned for more aggressive
riding to compliment the performance capabilities of the ST4S.
The signature Ducati trellis frame, derived from
our World Superbikes, compliments our powerful engines with confident and stable
road holding.
