Abstract: A method and system for controlling operation of a two-stroke engine having a turbocharger includes the two-stroke engine comprising an electronically controlled exhaust valve. A throttle position sensor generates a throttle position signal corresponding to a position of a throttle plate of a throttle. A boost box is coupled to the two-stroke engine. A boost box pressure sensor is coupled to the boost box and generates a boost box pressure signal corresponding to a pressure within the boost box. A controller is coupled to the boost box pressure signal controlling a position of the electronically controlled exhaust valve in response to the boost box pressure signal and the throttle position signal.

Abstract: When riding a motorcycle, a vehicle in the rider's blind spot poses a hazard. A fixed range blind spot detector may not properly detect vehicles in adjacent lanes if the motorcycle is at one side or other of the lane that it is travelling in. A lane position sensor detects the position of the motorcycle with respect to the centerline of the lane in which it is travelling. Depending on the sideways position of the motorcycle within its lane, the widths of the detection zones of the blind spot detector are adjusted so that between them they cover a majority of the width of each adjacent lane.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a controller and a control method for an assistance system that improves a rider's safety.
A controller (20) has an acquisition section (21) and an execution section (22). The acquisition section acquires a positional relationship information regarding a lean vehicle (100) and another vehicle located behind or on a lateral side of the lean vehicle (100). The acquisition section acquires the positional relationship information while the lean vehicle (100) is traveling based on a surrounding environment information that is information about an environment around the lean vehicle. The execution section executes an assistance operation based on the positional relationship information while the lean vehicle (100) is traveling. The assistance operation assists a rider of the lean vehicle (100) in driving the lean vehicle (100). The acquisition section acquires, while the lean vehicle (100) is traveling, a turning posture information of the lean vehicle (100). The execution section changes the assistance operation according to the turning posture information acquired by the acquisition section (21).
