Bonneville America Forums Forums Rider Safety Forums Riding Technique ABS brakes

No Dwight, I am talking about an ABS malfunction that is very common. The pump tries to stop a locking situation where none exists and prevents the driver from normal braking. In a 4 wheeled vehicle you can usually apply extra pressure to apply the brakes but when the pump corrects you end up over applying the brake causing the locking situation. I would never purchase a bike with ABS until this can be eliminated as a fault in the system.
Ron, the thought of Friar washing out due to braking had crossed my mind but I didn't want to bring it up. I do think it may be a good thing in the future but not reliable enough for bike yet IMO.
