The bike was cool as a cucumber coming to a straight line stop with both wheels ABS pulsing. I still have bikes without ABS and have no qualms riding them, but when having the option while making a purchase decision it is certainly a factor.
Dave, could you feel the pulsing? I have never felt it on either of my ABS equipped bikes, and always wondered what it felt like. I have stopped awfully hard a couple times, hard enough I expected wheel lock up, but no lock up and no sensations that I could feel from the ABS either. I'm told it is basically seemless now in operation.
