FLHRS'04 upgrade to ABS
Hi,
I'm thinking about upgrade my FLHRS 04 Road King Custom (no ABS) to ABS.
Does anybody know where can I find how to do that?
It's so expensive?
I need to improve my breaking system.
Thanks before hands.

Unless buying a new bike with ABS, I heartily advise going out and practicing braking techniques. Practice, practice, practice.
This is the best way to prepare for situations.
ABS is not the only solution.
Ride safe..

It can be done for your bike. but you are looking in the 4k range to get it done. Unless you can find a take off from a bike and build on it. It depending on the year you get donor from. you will need new CPU, wheels, rotors, and brakes. You will also need controler and all brake lines. It would be cheaper to sell the bike you have now and buy a used 2008+ with ABS

I installed Brembo's on the front of my "07, bolted right up and the improvement was night and day. Simple conversion. Calipers, rotors, master cylinder and clutch perch to make it all match. simple, all on ebay........

You can't by the factory parts. I tried to add it to my 09 RKC...There is a big liability issue...I was told...So I traded up to 2011 with ABS....works great but need to get used to them a little.....Go with the Brembo's not as good as ABS but an improvement over the older style....Good Luck!
