ABS or no? Who has what?

[AlanH_imp]

Ok guys .... i'm now up to speed after waiting a year for black.
The 2014 IMC bike show in Novi, MI didn't have the 2014 models.
If i want ABS than it's BIG RED which isn't my favorite color i'm saddened to say so no offense to all your rides :&gt

I subscribe to several cycle magazines. Cruiser, Cycle World (CW) & Motor Cyclist (MC). I recall reading in either CW or MC that the ABS version of the 2013 CB1100 model was reported with a negative overtone (for braking) compared to the non-ABS European version that was tested prior to the bike coming to the USA by the author who had ridden both models.

What are your toughts on this?

FWIIW, i'm an advocate of TCS & ABS and am not wanting to start a pi$$ing battle. Just looking for some real world experience from those members that have both versions.

thanks
