Mike, when have you ever heard of an ABS pump failing on a Goldwing ?

I haven't. I am not even sure they have an ABS pump. I bought the F6B beacuse the Goldwing Platform is rock solid and reliable. That being said my point was the more bells and whistles the more potential for problems. I also really like the linked (non-ABS) brakes. I do finally accept fuel injection now as superior to carbs so there is hope for me. :icon_biggrin:
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.
I also would like ABS to be available but Honda does what they want so I will buy something else with ABS.
