Abstract rovided is a motorcycle braking arrangement (18) comprising a brake lever (10) (and/or brake pedal) defining a grasping or stepping surface (14), respectively, whereby a rider is able to apply pressure in order to produce a first analogue signal, a force-sensitive resistor (FSR) (16) mounted on and/or in said surface (14) and configured to produce a second analogue signal. In this manner, pressure applied to the grasping surface (14) results in simultaneous production of said first and second signals, whereby a controller (20) is configured to electronically correlate the second signal with the first. The arrangement (18) also includes at least one servomechanism (22) which is arranged in signal communication with the controller (20) and is configured to actuate a brake (24) of the motorcycle (26) according to the correlation between the first and second signals.
