Crashed a few years back from diesel on a roundabout and often wondered if ABS would have saved it. New bike has ABS and the other day a (ahem) lady on a bicycle decide she would shoot across my path going around Trafalgar square in the dry. ABS kicked in and I stayed on. Pretty sure on the gen 1 I would have been off which meant the bike would have slid forward and hit her (or just got squashed by a bus)
Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
