1. A method for preventing a forward flip-over of a single-track motor vehicle during a braking action of a front wheel, the method comprising the following steps:
ascertaining, for each of a plurality of dynamics characteristics of the motor vehicle that are respectively obtained from respective output of sensors of the motor vehicle, a respective value of a risk that a rear wheel of the of the motor vehicle will lift off a ground surface or has lifted off the ground surface;
ascertaining a lift-off indicator parameter based on a combination of all of the ascertained values of the risk, wherein the ascertained lift-off indicator parameter represents a present risk of occurrence of a flip-over of the motor vehicle by lift off of the rear wheel; and
reducing a braking force at the front wheel as a function of the ascertained lift-off indicator parameter to prevent the forward flip-over;
wherein the method includes at least one of the following two features (a) and (b):
(a) the plurality of dynamics characteristics includes a pitch angle of the motor vehicle, a pitch angle velocity of the motor vehicle, and an angle characterizing a lateral offset of the rear wheel; and
(b) the combination is a mathematical summation adding to one another the values of the risk ascertained for the plurality of dynamics characteristics.
