Monday - The European Commission passed legislation in 2012 that made the fitment with ABS for all new motorcycles above 125cc to be mandatory from 1 January 2016.

According to Wiki

[STRIKE]sorry to cause confusion however wasn't sure whether 2012 or 2016 was meant to be the answer, so went investigating and found conflicting answers:



Q - bosch's motorcycle ABS will become mandatory in europe to all newly registered models from what year?

http://virukshamacademy.com/2016/01/01/ - ABS will be mandatory for all new models with more than 125 cc engine from April 2017 and the existing ones from April 2018. Also, the Ministry’s notification set an April 2017 deadline for CBS in all new models of two-wheelers with less than 125cc engine and April 2018 for existing models.
[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]which agrees with

http://www.autoevolution.com/news/mandatory-abs-for-motorcycles-over-125cc-from-2017-27630.html[/STRIKE]

[STRIKE]The proposal is currently passing through the EU legislative procedure, and will likely be adopted next year. The regulation is to come into effect from 2017. [/STRIKE]


sorry - ignore me - I'm talking rubbish

however could only find 2016 on Boschs web site, although article is over 3 years old
http://www.bosch.co.uk/en/uk/newsroom_2/news_2/news-detail-page_14850.php

HeyerFan

Thank you bluesooz. From the wording in the question, the answer is in the future so I'm going with 2017.

..... is from 2010.

... that is in INDIA - it is the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways of the Union Government of India. The paragraph after the one quoted is about the EU.

I would rely on Bennetts

From 1/1/2016 all new-model bikes over 125cc will need ABS, while smaller bikes must have either ABS or a combined brake system. As with the rest of the rules, there’s a year of grace for carry-over models, but come the start of 2017 everything must be in-line with the regulations to be allowed to be sold.

So all new models sold after 1/1/16 need to have ABS (older designs can still be sold without ABS) but from 1/1/17 every bike sold must have ABS.

Having said all that, the answer (2016 or 2017) depends on your interpretation of the question text, which is not crystal clear.

I think it's Latin

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineer

Engineers design materials, structures, and systems while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety, and cost. The word engineer (from the Latin ingeniator) is derived from the Latin words ingeniare ("to contrive, devise") and ingenium ("cleverness")

Blulu

It's confusing. But I would also go with Latin. Google shows:

"Engineer Origin:

Middle English (denoting a designer and constructor of fortifications and weapons; formerly also as ingineer ): in early use from Old French engigneor, from medieval Latin ingeniator, from ingeniare ‘contrive, devise’, from Latin ingenium (see engine); in later use from French ing!nieur or Italian ingegnere, also based on Latin ingenium, with the ending influenced by -eer."
