Need some clarification
I'm looking to purchase a new bike in the next few month or so, and am strongly leaning towards at least a 09 or newer Ultra Classic. I seem to recall that you could only get ABS and security together as part of the security package (unless you got the power pak pre 2012), but I see a lot of bikes that claim to have ABS but not security. Is that possible? I was thinking that if the bike had ABS it had security automatically, but now I'm starting to second guess myself.

Pretty sure that it'll automatically have Security when it has ABS. But....from what I understand the Security option can be added at the dealer to a Non-ABS bike fairly easily. Someone else may chime in and correct me.

Both my '08 & '12 Ultra Classics had/have ABS and neither had/have the security system.

My 09 FLHTCU 96" has ABS & no security as received from the factory.

I wonder if it changes with the bikes. In the Electra Glide series of bikes were there not the Electra Glide, Electra Glide Ultra Classic and then the Electra Glide Ultra Limited?
I have the '12 limited and it has ABS and Security but no alarm. I thought the ABS and security as a package was not available on the Electra Glide (Dealer install though), optional on the classic and standard on the limited. Not sure though been a while since I looked over that series of bikes.
