I'd definitely be interested, too. Their web site looks pretty legit.

I know I wanted it on my bike but none were avalible at the time, so I lost out. And all I've heard were how great they are. Makes me sick.

Ive heard good and bad about the ABS from local MC's and riders. My question is how do I know if my 2012 heritage classic has ABS or not?

Taking a read on their website, it sounds more like an "accumulator" to average out varying hydraulic pressures, than any kind of modern traction control device.

You will have a yellow ABS light blinking as soon as you turn the bike on. Also, on my 2012 Softail Deluxe you can see the ABS cylinder in front of the engine.
