The ABS is almost unnoticeable on my 13 plate ZZR1400
Being of the old progressive braking school I don't see any reason to change how I brake
I like technology that sits in the background waiting to work if required (ABS and Traction control)
In 10k miles I can only think of twice when the ABS has chipped in
A car shot out of the entrance of a cafe when waved out by a guy waiting to turn in (but he never thought to look right :o [size=78%]) had to brake hard and the ABS pulsed in the last 20 yards of my stop ,,,ABS probably didn't help but didn't seem to hinder either .[/size]
I rode into a jet wash bay ( a bit quick because I,m an impatient git lol) and didn't realise it was completely covered by thick mud I touched the front brake and the ABS kicked in straight away and I think saved an embarrassing drop :eek
