As others indicate - security = no problem, but ABS...not so easy & ex$pen$ive. I know it's probably too late, but should've ordered it on the bike. Keep in mind, even though ABS is a nice safety feature - it adds weight to the bike & can malfunction. Been riding 32+ years on non-ABS bikes & all have stopped fine when needed. I wouldn't sweat it - ride the FB & enjoy, but keep safe distance from the front...
