Description

Control device for motorcycle and motorcycle Technical Field The present invention relates to a control device for a motorcycle and a motorcycle. Background In motorcycles (such as two-wheeled motorcycles), it is often important to identify whether the driver is sitting in the driver seat. For example, DE 10 2007 059 401 A1 in this respect discloses a transmission control device for a two-wheeled motor vehicle, which has a seat sensor that detects when the driver is sitting in the driver's seat. The transmission control apparatus further includes a switching mechanism for automatically switching the automatic transmission to the neutral region when a vehicle stop state is detected based on an output signal of the vehicle speed sensor and an operator is not seated in the operator's seat is detected after the engine is started. However, such a solution requires an additional sensor, namely the aforementioned seat sensor, and also limits some applications and operational degrees of freedom. Disclosure of Invention The object of the present invention is therefore to create a control device for a motorcycle and a motorcycle, in which existing or anyway required sensors and signals should be used in order to optimize the operation of the vehicle. This object is achieved by a control device according to claim 1 and by a motorcycle according to claim 6. Further advantages and features are given by the dependent claims, the description and the accompanying drawings. According to the invention, the control device for a motorcycle comprises a processing unit which is designed to detect signals from the parking device and a braking operation and a shifting operation, and to activate a ready state of the motorcycle when the braking operation and the simultaneous shifting operation are detected with the parking device deployed, wherein the control device has an operating unit for activating the ready state of the motorcycle, which is designed to interact with the drive train of the motorcycle, in particular the transmission. The parking device is, for example, a stand, in particular a side stand of a motorcycle. According to a preferred embodiment, the parking device is a main stand of a motorcycle. Such a main support comprises two legs and allows one wheel of the motorcycle to hang when the support is deployed. Advantageously, it is possible here to recognize whether a ready state for driving is required without the provision of a seat sensor or the like. The control device is designed or parameterized to activate the ready state when the parking device is deployed, in other words when the parking device is detected to be deployed, and when a shift operation and a brake operation are simultaneously detected. According to a preferred embodiment, the activation of the driving ready state comprises, for example, engaging a gear. For this purpose, an actuating unit is expediently provided, which is designed to engage or disengage a gear in the transmission, or more generally to control or actuate the transmission in such a way that there is or is not a power transmission from the engine to the drive wheels. For this purpose, depending on the construction of the transmission, the operating unit can also be designed to interact with a clutch or a shift drum. According to one embodiment, the control device is provided for keeping the drive-ready state active if a braking operation is detected within a defined period of time in the event of a deployed parking device. According to one embodiment, the processing unit is provided for detecting an operation of the drive value setter, wherein the control device is designed for keeping the drive ready state active if an operation of the drive value setter is detected within a defined period of time, in the event of a deployment of the parking device. In principle, this control device offers the advantage that, in the case of a deployed parking device, the ready-to-drive state can be activated or maintained even when the driver is standing. This may be necessary, for example, when the driver wants to walk off the main support and move the center of gravity backwards to increase the contact of the rear wheels with the ground. The control device is also designed to deactivate the ready-to-drive state if it is detected that the parking device is deployed. The control device is suitably capable of recognizing that the driver for example wants to pull the motorcycle onto the main support and disabling the ready-to-drive condition. When the parking device is deployed, if the throttle handle is operated unintentionally, advantageously no acceleration of the vehicle occurs, since the ready-to-drive state is deactivated. The ready-to-drive state is expediently only activated if simultaneous braking and shifting operations are detected. According to one embodiment, the control device is configured to deactivate the ready state if no braking operation or no operation of the drive value setter i
