Hi all,
Just what the subject line says, I have a chance to acquire a red '13 ABS model, I know it has ABS but any other differences vs the standard model?
OTD price used is $6800, 14K miles on it. Looks like it is a clean one-owner bike.
Thanks,
Scott

One has ABS and one doesn't. Also the ABS model in '13 is CBS or Combined Brake System.

10-4, I think the dealer made a mistake, there is no inner ring on the front brake disc anywhere, sigh

Then not ABS. Is the non-abs model.
If you look at some old posts, you'll find that in '13 (and on too) some dealers, including mine, said it was rear ABS only. There is no such thing with the CB. Even after the service manager explained it to my salesman, he still said it had rear ABS only, LOL.

At any rate, I think I want to try a 2013 for a daily driver / commuter. Have a 2014 model but why not both?

Just don't be looking for that 6th gear...

I paid $6800 for my 2013 ABS two years ago when it had 7K miles. The one you are looking at sounds over priced. There is a non-ABS in the for sale section of this site for less than $4K.

It looks like the listing for Jamboa's bike was removed. Did it sell?
