I have had my F6 for two years, 15k miles. I have never gotten over the fact that it does not have ABS, such a crucial safety feature. I really would feel safer having it, despite the top notch lockers and reassuring handling of the F6.

I do not want to go to chromed-up Vtwin. What are my options?

I keep coming back to a full Wing. That way I could keep the motor and handling, plus the reliability, and get those anti-lock brakes that are always in the back of my mind. Not to mention cruise and some other nice features.

What stops me is...cost...still owe on the F6, and it ain't worth nothin' used...the full Wing seat is awful for a 6'1" guy...plus the full Wing is ugly, IMO. The F6 is a hot looking bike; I am always getting compliments.

I could sell/trade my F6 and get a used full Wing...perhaps a 2010, 2012 with ABS.

Perhaps I should just practice emergency braking more and wait until the NEW Wing is out, bugs worked through for a couple of years, then pull the trigger. Love the thought of having the 7 speed DCT...
