The present invention further obtains a control method capable of handling special travel made by a straddle-type vehicle.

Surrounding environment information of a straddle-type vehicle (100) is acquired on the basis of output of at least one surrounding environment detector (11). Then, based on the surrounding environment information, presence or absence of slip-by travel between rows of vehicles made by the straddle-type vehicle (100) is analyzed. As a result, rider-assistance operation that corresponds to the analysis result is executed.

A system and method for limited range sharing of vehicle setup information is disclosed. The system includes a memory; and at least one processor configured to: obtain a vehicle setup information for a vehicle, the vehicle setup information comprising one or more adjustment settings for one or more adjustable components of the vehicle; package the vehicle setup information into at least one tune; format the at least one tune in a computer readable scannable format; and present the at least one tune in the computer readable scannable format.

A cloud diagnosis service system and a vehicle detection method are provided. The vehicle detection method includes the following steps: providing a vehicle detection unit, in which the vehicle detection unit is configured to be connected to an electric bicycle and a server; providing a vehicle detection signal to the electric bicycle by the vehicle detection unit; providing, according to the vehicle detection signal, a plurality of state values of a vehicle controller, a torque sensor, a motor unit, a battery unit, and a connection wire group to the vehicle detection unit by the vehicle controller of the electric bicycle; and providing, according to the plurality of state values of the vehicle controller, the torque sensor, the motor unit, the battery unit, and the connection wire group, a vehicle detection report by the vehicle detection unit or the server.

A saddled vehicle includes an information display unit (37) that displays information on a preceding vehicle (B1) which an own vehicle (M) follows when traveling, wherein a positional relationship between the own vehicle (M) and the preceding vehicle (B1) is recognized, and, in a case in which a change occurs in the positional relationship, a display mode of the preceding vehicle (B1) on the information display unit (37) is changed.

A controller and a control method capable of appropriately assisting with a rider's operation while suppressing falling of a motorcycle, departure of the motorcycle from a lane, a difficulty of the motorcycle in adaptive cruise, and the like is disclosed. In the controller and the control method according to the present invention, in a control mode to make the motorcycle perform autonomous cruise acceleration operation, automatic acceleration that is acceleration generated to the motorcycle by the autonomous cruise acceleration operation is controlled in accordance with a lean angle of the motorcycle.

The present invention provides a controller capable of handling special travel made by a straddle-type vehicle. The present invention also obtains a rider-assistance system including such a controller. The present invention further obtains a control method capable of handling special travel made by a straddle-type vehicle.

Left target information and right target information are acquired on the basis of output of at least one surrounding environment detector (11c, 11d). The left target information is information on a target (T1) located on a left side of a travel line (DL) of a straddle-type vehicle (100). The right target information is information on a target (T2) located on a right side of the travel line (DL). A travel state of the straddle-type vehicle (100) is analyzed on the basis of at least one of the left target information and the right target information, and rider-assistance operation corresponding to an analysis result thereof is executed.

A method for automatically setting a speed-control or proximity-control system of a two-wheeled motor vehicle. In the method, it is ascertained if the two-wheeled motor vehicle is on a group ride with at least one other two-wheeled motor vehicle; and in the event of a group ride, the speed-control or proximity-control system is switched to a special operating mode.

Provided is a travel evaluation method of making an evaluation related to travel of a vehicle capable of traveling in a leaning position, the method including: obtaining a tire force which is an external force exerted on a wheel of the vehicle from a ground surface; and deriving an evaluation index related to travel of the vehicle. The evaluation index includes a positive evaluation index as a rating of a positive evaluation related to travel of the vehicle. In deriving the evaluation index, the positive evaluation index is set higher as the tire force increases, and the evaluation index is corrected based on an influential parameter other than the tire force.

The present invention provides a saddle ride type vehicle including a sensing unit configured to sense a four-wheel vehicle that is present in front of a self-vehicle and is traveling in a travel lane of the self-vehicle, and a control unit configured to, in a case where the four-wheel vehicle is sensed by the sensing unit, perform follow-travel control for causing traveling of the self-vehicle to follow traveling of the four-wheel vehicle, wherein the sensing unit senses a vehicle width of the four-wheel vehicle, and the control unit, in the follow-travel control, controls a travel position in a vehicle width direction of the self-vehicle so that at least a portion of the self-vehicle falls within a region within the vehicle width of the four-wheel vehicle.

The present invention obtains a processor, a processing method, a warning system, and a straddle-type vehicle capable of improving both the rider's safety and the rider's comfort.

A processor (20) includes: an acquisition section that acquires surrounding environment information corresponding to output of a surrounding environment detector (11) during travel of a straddle-type vehicle (100); a determination section that determines necessity of warning operation provided to the rider and generated by the warning system (1); and a control section that makes an alarm (30) perform the warning operation in the case where the determination section determines that the warning operation is necessary. The acquisition section further acquires helmet posture direction information corresponding to output of a helmet posture direction detector (13) during the travel of the straddle-type vehicle (100). The determination section determines the necessity of the warning operation on the basis of the surrounding environment information and the helmet posture direction information.
