Default 07 for 08 trade in

I really love my 07sg but damm I wish I would of known they were going to have ABS on the 08's. Plus I love that crimson red.sooo I have listed mine locally for sale. Been to 6 differnt dealers and most of the 08's that were shipped don't have ABS.You would think HD would put it on at least half of them. Its like one out of 8.
I know this sounds rediculous but its a weakness of mine. Gotta have the new and improved.

Extremely hard to keep up with all the changes esp like brakes. I haven't had them with three bikes doesn't look like I'm going to have them with my fourth - 07 Ultra Classic. By the time you get the next models come out something else will change. You have a great bike and you are probalby going to take a beating if you trade but its only money.

From what I understand they come standard with Bren.Brakes.

If you wish to upgrade with the Bren. ABS Brakes, it cost $795.00 more.

By the way they are Brembo brakes they are originally an Italian brake company specializing in high performance braking systems.
