A two-wheeler is statically unstable but as the speed increases vehicle achieves stability. At low speed, the vehicle loses its stability. In order to achieve stability, the driver has to balance the vehicle. While negotiating a curve, a vehicle has to lean to a certain angle, if this angle exceeds the certain value, the vehicle tends to skid. In this paper the stability control system is incorporated, so that a vehicle will maintain stability even at low speeds. The stability of a two-wheeler

For developing a simplified model, the speed of the vehicle is kept as constant, using which the effect of steering angle is analysed and accordingly a controller is incorporated for providing stability.
