Default Re: ABS - Gimmick or great

I have to say I must be sensible then. Having ABS hasnt noticeably changed my riding style - crashing the SV had more of, if you forgive the pun, an impact on that.

I seriously would be questioning my skills or even being on the bike if I changed my riding and rode harder relying on one feature of the bike tbh. But thats me I guess.

For me the ABS is there as an added confidence that should I have to brake suddenly Im less likely to lock the wheel up. That on no account removes any onus on me to ride within my limits or responsibly and not put myself in the position to have to actually rely on its shorter stopping distance.
