2013 Optional ABS VS 2014 Deluxe ABS

Read this thread and you will be glad that you don't have the (very expensive) C-ABS that the CBR1000RR has. When it works it is very good, but when it doesn't…

My first CBR1000RR had the C-ABS battery failure problem. Fortunately, it did not develop the other (more serious) problems. My second CBR1000RR I specifically bought without C-ABS due to the ongoing issues.



Edit: The CB1100 ABS model uses one master modulator unit which is a hybrid of the two different systems in the diagram above. I haven't tested a CB1100 ABS model so I don't know if the front brakes can activate the rear brakes. If they do, then it is the fancier system. It should be easy to test for if someone is interested. Read this review to see how that system feels under use: http://www.ashonbikes.com/content/honda-c-abs
