Is ABS standard on a CVO bike. If so, starting when and which models?

Thanks

I see a SERK in my immediate future given the tank slapper I went down with 6 weeks ago on my 05 FLTRi. Thanks for the info.

Although all of the 08 came with Brembo brakes the ABS was only standard on the Screaming Eagle model, it was considered an upgrade on the regular touring models. I don't think that has changed since then

I thought the ABS started in 07, standard on PD dresser bikes?

Maybe so, but it was the start of ABS as standard equipment and a big plus for everyone from 08 on that desired to have the system.

Those that have it, don't forget that there is a software upgrade available. Check with your dealer.

So - how do tires affect the calibration?


And If you use Metzlers your brakes don't work as well as they could  :nixweiss:
