Abstract :
Motorcycles are a common mode of transport. They are used both for a conventional purpose - as a way to cover the
distance from A to B, but more and more often they are a way of recreation. The choice of bikes is huge on the market: from
scooters, threw small city bikes, to high-speed performance or racing machines. High speeds is closely related to high kinetic
energy of movement. In case of emergency stopping, the brakes may overheat and cause fading. In this study, it was decided to
check how the initial speed affects the motorcycle brake heating process. FEM was used for this purpose
