Found this video at www.americanrider.com It shows how the ABS works in a test environment. Also has some stuff on the CVO models. I found it interesting, and have read posts that this video might help answer. Just a FYI. Also, anyone else know of a good site to read articles on baggers,customs, whatever on that line,drop them in here. I am running out of stuff to read. LOL
Thanks Papatravis for this link. I had seen a similar video from BMW when they came out with their ABS.
I found some other info on the site that was very interesting. Specificaly the article about the Supertrapp 2 into 1 system.Their insights on the type mods I have been considering was very informative. I thought that their testing protocol was well thought out and documented. I will be keeping an eye on this site for sure!
A lot of police agencies were dropping HDs for BMWs last year, because they required ABS. I would think the police business is probably the driving force behind HD coming out with ABS. Hell, the Goldwings come with airbags now, as an option. Somehow, a side impact airbag on a bike might just make sense.
