- BR when an operating force is applied to at least one of the front wheel brake operating element (50) and the rear wheel brake operating element (60) during the automatic control of (BR), the brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operating force is automatically increased. If it is less than the brake fluid pressure generated by the control, the automatic control is continued. On the other hand, if the brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operating force is equal to or higher than the brake fluid pressure generated by the automatic control, the automatic control is performed.

- step S52 it is determined whether or not the operating force of the brake operator is less than the brake fluid pressure generated by the automatic brake, and if an affirmative determination is made, the process proceeds to step S53.
- step S53 it is determined whether or not the vehicle is turning, and if the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to step S54 to continue automatic control of the front wheel brake BF and switch the rear wheel brake BR to manual control. That is, when the vehicle is turning, the automatic control of the rear wheel brake BR is not continued even if the brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operation force is less than the brake fluid pressure under automatic control.
- the braking force of the rear wheel brake BR can be reduced to facilitate avoidance operations such as lane changes.
- step S55 it is determined whether or not the conditions for canceling the automatic control are satisfied. If the determination is affirmative, the front wheel side is also switched to manual control in step S56, and the series of control ends. If a negative determination is made in step S55, the process returns to step S54.
- step S53 determines whether or not the vehicle is traveling straight ahead.
- step S58 it is determined whether or not the automatic control cancellation condition is satisfied, and if an affirmative determination is made, the process proceeds to step S59, where the front and rear brakes BF and BR are switched to manual control. If a negative determination is made in step S58, the process returns to step S57. If a negative determination is made in step S52, the process proceeds to step S59 and switching to manual control is performed. If a negative determination is made in step S50, the series of control ends.
- the mode of operation when the automatic braking is stopped, the mode of operation when the automatic control cancellation condition is satisfied during automatic braking, and the like are not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications are possible.
- the start of turning can be used as a trigger to change the front and rear brake distribution.
- the front and rear brake distribution can be changed with the start of the throttle operation as a trigger.
- the brake system according to the present invention can be applied not only to motorcycles, but also to saddle type tricycles and the like.
