I love it that you defend riding 45 mph between stopped or slow moving distracted drivers in cars/trucks and eschew ABS. That cracks me up. I do understand you are trying to encourage people to learn how to brake properly and not rely on technology, but there is no reason not to do both, and for those unwilling to learn emergency braking techniques that the technology makes riding a motorcycle a lot safer for them.

Understand that according to studies, the average motorcyclist rides about 1900 miles a year. It's hard to maintain skills when you are riding so infrequently. Technology such as ABS will most benefit those riders.
