Hi all.

Being new to the biking world and doing a lot of research on what could be my first bike I came across videos and articles on bikes with abs and without and the difference is astonishing.

In this day and age is it not a bit old school to not have abs mandatory on bikes?

I hope it's not a silly question or statement, it's all new to me so just wanted to find out what people think.

Not sure if not having abs helps with the enjoyment of riding?

Lol. Thanks for the reply guys/gals.

My thinking was more along the lines of if you got caught out by another idiot on the road then it would be very helpful in such am emergency situation.

I looked at a few of the sport bikes n didn't really a see them have it.
