Brake system of saddle-type vehicle

Abstract

To provide a brake system for a saddled vehicle that ensures vehicle's stable behavior when a brake operating element is operated during automatic control. A brake system for a saddled vehicle includes: a control device exerting automatic control over a brake fluid pressure; and a front-wheel brake operating element and a rear-wheel brake operating element for a driver to manually operate a front-wheel brake and a rear-wheel brake. When an operation force is applied to at least one of the front-wheel brake operating element and the rear-wheel brake operating element while the front-wheel brake and the rear-wheel brake are under automatic control of the control device, if a brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operation force is less than a brake fluid pressure generated by the automatic control, the control device maintains the automatic control, and if a brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operation force is equal to or greater than a brake fluid pressure generated by the automatic control, the control device cancels the automatic control and generates the brake fluid pressure corresponding to the operation force.
