Means you'll be able to steer while heavily braking so sounds worthwhile to me

No. Physics still apply to bikes with ABS. Do not steer and brake hard at the same time.

I'll remember that then if a rather larger van pulls out on me.  hit the foccer as mustn't steer while brakes are applied even if abs  [size=78%]  [/size]

This is why they teach the swerve test...off brakes, weave round, back in.


But i think with abs you can possibly keep the brakes on while doing this........

Precisely the  ABS pulsates the braking to prevent wheels locking taking the need to do so away from the driver. Alot of accidents happen by drivers not understanding the principles of ABS and continue to manually pump the brakes instead of continually pressing on pedal as is mean't until braking is no longer required.  Obviously ABS doesn't work too well in the snow
