Hey, Roy, no one cares about your supposed resume. I'd tell you to go look up the WERA Grand National Finals from the year I raced them but they're probably yellowed at best in the archaic vault. Your coming in here and espousing your prowess is meaningless as it relates to this topic and conveersation. Come on by and you can look at my I love me wall though. But, as I said, no one cares. I'll give Wayne, Scott, Doug, and Kenny a call. Maybe they'll come over for a good laugh at someone who doesn't get it. Oh, and when we're done, give Terry Vance a call. Yea, I raced for him when Dave Sadowski and Thomas Stevens were on the National team. Putz!

Phil your a joke face it. I've read your crap for a while now it's like you are above everyone when you open your mouth. ::) As for your supposed past career bring it on old man. I was a former champion in WERA at a Road Atlanta Grand National event, '03 Senior SBK on a little 600. Top 5 finisher in Expert 600 superstock and superbike. I still am all about real riding not touring to eat a burger, adding the latest gadget, portraying myself as the messiah of S10 world. No sir ree I still ride like this and that was at a lil old trackday --->



while you troll on an old mans bike forum. :)) You and everyone else can keep on harping the ABS drum, I'm the one laughing because you have all shown your real knowledge (or lack of is more like it) on this subject. Real riders don't need nannies to go fast. Hell I never liked the slipper clutches since you already have one built in, your left hand. I never said ABS did not have it's place, it does on the STREET. As for off road, no it does not need to be there.

And for all your faith full clueless, ignorant followers, piss off I speak the truth and if you had a ounce of riding prowess in your body you would know I am right.

BTW please post up (if you survive) when you bust your ass off road due to ABS.

One more time I couldn't resist stirring this pot anymore. No ABS allowed here and not needed if you know what the hell you are doing. BTW I was doing this on purpose for the camera guy, but hey I'm sure y'all can do this sort of thing right? :))


I want to take this opportunity to thank Dirt Dad for posting up the video, it's proof this system has no business on a off road arena. If you can't see the possible disaster from the video then you really do know less than I originally gave any of you credit for. ABS simply increases your stopping distances off road and in a tight that can/will end badly when you ride right over the edge of the road or into that big old oak tree.

A simple switch would have been a nice addition to an already good bike. As for all the ABS off road riders, good luck!! I am done arguing with everyone here on this. I know what I know and you think you know what you know so we part ways here and now.

Only for Roy's self promoting BS, I'd like to turn that off. I still think he's messing with us, no one could possibly believe the nonsense he's spewing. Joke's on us, right Roy? ::003::

Guess you gave me too much credit. I bought into all this ABS silliness when I intentionally grabbed the front brakes hard on a wet grassy downhill and the bike just stopped with no drama. You are probably right about it increasing my distance, because if I had grabbed the brakes that hard without ABS I would have gone down immediately and stopped when my handlebars dug into the ground.

Would I be correct in guessing you are also too good to be impressed by the traction control system? I really like that one, too. But clearly I've learned very little in the last 36 years of riding.

Hopefully the industry engineers will read your expert comments. Then they can stop wasting their time trying to improve technology. Obviously their efforts will never match your prowess and they can concentrate on something useful...maybe some velcro that will help you keep your foot on the peg when you go around a corner.

Wondering how long it would take before someone broke down.

I'll find that switch soon, promise...

But yeah, would be good to try and keep this forum slightly respectful.

This thread could stand to be classed up a little, I think. Can we not just accept that there will be differences of opinions on many topics, particularly those topics that involve the value of ABS and whether to stir or shake a martini. Let's not piss on each others' tires unless they're on fire. Don't make me have to call Colorider back from his vacation. Come on, guys, let's play nice with each other. We're family. Speaking of which, I'm available for adoption. I wouldn't need much. Maybe a small allowance and a winter home. Group hug. Come on ... you'll feel better ... group hug. ::020:: R

Actually...this was all just an intervention for you Fender...it is about time you face the truth on your dyslexia...you still have time to turn your life around!

Yep, I'd say this one has run its course. I'll start the lock-out hub discussion shortly. :D

ps - don't bother unless it's warm where you are RIGHT NOW !!! Just sayin' ....
