Less safety is better than more safety?
Warranty will take care of any issues on the bike. I never keep a bike more than 3 years anyway so not an issue for me.
Honda definitely made a mistake not making ABS at least available in the USA. It's a proven fact that bikes with ABS are safer regardless of the riders skill and ability. Every bike running in Moto GP has ABS and I would have to say those guys are a bit more skilled than the average rider.
