ABS vs. Non-ABS
#51
I'm looking to buy a new Road King for hubby and won't buy without ABS. [Looking for 2009 FLHR] In my search I've learned that they're harder to find and more expensive....so if you buy for resale at all....go for ABS. Period.
On the same note, if going for Road King, I will say hard bags will net you more also. They resale better than the classics even though STD is less expensive. I find that interesting.
Peace.

Might be worth checking if your software has been updated. I understand it makes the ABS less sensitive and might help in that sort of situation.

Came with my 08 RK.
Don't need it, don't like it at all, and wish I didn't have it.
- Adds unnecessary complexity thereby increasing chances of system failure.
- Makes servicing more complex and expensive.
- Makes buying parts more complex and expensive.
If you happen to have it, like it, or want it...
Good luck and best wishes.

All your rationalizations are incorrect. You might as well decide to eliminate electric start and fuel injection - either of which is more likely to cause problems. If the ABS were to have an issue, you would get a warning light and still have full braking.
