I am about to get my first Motorcycle! I originally wanted a softtail slim but after riding one I think it should be a little uncomfortable after a while. I am 6'3" 240 lbs and I'm sure my wife will want to ride with me some eventually. So I decided to get a new Road King. I think I am going to go ahead and get security and cruise control but am not sure about ABS since I have never rode a bike with that option. Any input on ABS?

Welcome to the HD Forums from Texas.

I've heard ABS is pretty nice to have. I don't have it but I wish I did.

Welcome to the forum. They bundle the security and ABS on the Touring bikes. You will want the ABS anyway, it is nice to have.

Thanks

Yeah I was told at one dealer it was bundled and at another it was optional alone or with security.

Welcome from Jacksonville, Florida! ABS works the same on your bike as it does on your car... why would you not want it?
