I got to use my ABS brakes today.

I'm glad you had ABS. Without ABS, when you locked both front and rear, the odds are great that you would have gone down. That's what happened to me 2 years ago. If I had been riding a bike with ABS, I believe that I wouldn't have gotten the chance to find out that I'm allergic to road rash.

Took a slide, no ABS :(
Can ABS be added to my 2010 Street Glide? I just laid it down in wet weather because I hit the brakes too hard and they locked up. There was definitely a little surprise, panick, and unplanned reaction involved, but I think ABS would have helped me in this situation. My passenger and I walked away, but with very sore wrists and elbows on one side. The most damage was to my ego, so I guess we were lucky.
