    I have em on my 08 Roadking and like them.
    I think they are safer, but that is just my opinion.


    I almost cut my hair, it happened just the other day.
    It was gettin' kinda long, I could've said it was in my way.
    But I didn't and I wonder why, I feel like letting my freak flag fly

    I like ABS. Stopping on wet or loose surfaces without washing out is a good thing.

    IMHO - ABS is probably more important on a motorcycle than an automobile.

    Brakes are most important. I'd pay what it takes to get it the way I think is best.

    I've been thinking of adding these http://www.eglidegoodies.com/id254.html as I'm going to braided lines and I'm due to change pads and fluid. I've read good "advertising" But haven't heard from anyone who uses them. Love to have them for ran riding if they work. Anyone know anything?

    Those with factory ABS. Why don't you like them?
