    I too have ridden/owned dozens of bikes in my driving career (55years) and have always wanted ABS when it was available. That is until I owned the F6B. This machine gives me control I have never had before. One has to wonder if it is worth $1000 and up.

    not a fan of ABS myself and I have been riding 41 years----It does appear that ABS becomes standard on the 2018 F6B and GL next year. If it is oh well, looks like I will have ABS

    I am not so sure ABS brakes are the "cats-meow" so to speak, but most bikes now have them as the marketers have forced them on the industry...Now we are faced with electric cars and self driving cars being shoved down our throats by those that feel it is the answer to all our problems!!!....Recently, legislators in California are attempting to introduce a bill banning all "Internal Combustion Engines"...Good Luck. but the "Idiots" in that state think they are the only people on earth.....Ride safe

    Many countries are proposing banning the ICE in coming years. Not just California. Take a look at China, India Germany & Denmark.

    I drive a P85D tesla after owning many other performance vehicles. I find gas cars slow boring @ outdated now. Never going back to combustion engine.
    Never driven an electric bike though....would love to try one.
    I think ABS is a good thing but rarely have used it.
    Technologies are fantastic. Without them we'd still be hunter gatherers.

    You just copped to a bunch of Trump-voting, gun-toting RealAmericans(TM) that you drive a Tesla. They may ask you to surrender your man card.

    If I could recover from the 2008 stock crash (thanks Barry) I could afford a Tesla too.

    What is wrong with driving a Tesla? It is not like it is a Prius or something weak. Heck a Tesla is Corvette competition and equally good looking.

    Well, first: the crash started in 2007, well before the election. Second: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/21/y...stor.html?_r=0

    Maybe you shouldn't have sold back in 07-08, you would have done well under Obama.
