I was buzzing down a country road on my Ultra and a deer jumped out of the corn not more than 25 feet in front of me! I nailed the brakes and I felt the ABS kick in. I am convinced I would have hit that deer and probably crashed without the ABS.

 

Glad you are ok. I keep hoping I don't have a deer run out. In front of me! My 02 RKC doesn't have ABS.

 

Yeah ABS were a most for me when I purchased this bike! Glad to hear they worked. Glad you are ok

 

Yeah that type of situation is exactly why I got ABS on my new scooter. I'm glad it worked out for you.

 

Didn't think I wanted ABS, but got it anyway. I'm glad I did, also. Good to hear things worked out on the positive side!!!

 

The image of that deer is burned into my memory, I was close enouogh that I could make out individual hairs on it,lol. I recommend ABS to everyone,there's no way I could have reacted that fast on my own!

 

ya... ichecked into ABS retro fit onto my 2003 RK but was told "no deal"...arrggghhhh

 

Sounds like a good reason to tell the wife why you need a new bike ..... "Honey it will keep me safe so we can be together forever"

 

ABS is the best option since seats.

 

Nice save,Great safety feature
