I am a motorcyclist and have been for a great many years, I’m down to 2 bikes at the moment though, a dreadful situation to be in...I guess the ones saying I don't react early enough aren't motorcyclist still alive after 40 years riding bikes …. every ride you have to save your own life avoiding cretins in car's who don't even know how to look out of the windows
a side effect is you learn to work out what the retards are going to do (before they even know) and react very quickly
As living motorcyclist of 43 years I can be fairly confident in saying that if your needing to "react very quickly" to cretins on the road, youre not looking far enough ahead and/or being very reactive in your riding. I for one dont have to "save my own life every ride"I guess the ones saying I don't react early enough aren't motorcyclist still alive after 40 years riding bikes …. every ride you have to save your own life avoiding cretins in car's who don't even know how to look out of the windows

Assuming your talking about SBC and not ABC, then what youre describing is not how SBC works and certainly not how it worked on my SL.the feature we are discussing here is not activated by to how smoothly (or not) one drives... On the 2006 era E class with ABC (like many) it activates the ABS because it detects the speed with which you change from Throttle open to Brake light coming on. It is NOT related to how much braking input the driver is using.

What LK said x2On this forum there are many people with cars that are SBC, EBA or adaptive braking equipped. Not one of them has any complaints about the systems.
You however have had numerous issues across several vehicles. Draw your own conclusions.
For the life of me I cannot figure out why you drive a Mercedes given your obvious dislike of them and regular complaints.
I really dont understand how Botus can be having so many issues that he attributes to SBC, I have had none of the problems on my SL.
That's a sweeping generalisation and not one I would apply to many of the folks on here.that most drivers have no idea what they are doing or indeed what the car around them is actually doing (let alone why).
