I'm going to be the minority here, because most that will respond, and most I believe that have this choice will opt for the ABS. I opt'd not to get the ABS, my reason's being, one, I like the feel of the non-ABS system much better, two, the biggest advantage I see in the ABS is on wet surfaces and my bike will never see the rain. I don't put anywhere near the miles on these things as I used to. I plan to take delivery of my new '09 SG and just about completly disassemble it as I always do and that 800 bucks I saved will go towards the rebuild cost. I will say however that if resale value is important to you, ABS is a must. That's my take, Rich
