But if not... provided you're riding correctly, the ABS will not trigger. So why the ? It's there to save you when things go wrong, but has no impact when things are going right.
Because Ive been braking just fine since 1977,
and when I want the pads on the disc, I want to feel the pads on the disc without interruption.

I had a cbr250 with ABS and it spoilt the perfect bike, it got to point it was dangerous entering the fast downhill turn 7 at my track.

And the last thing 250's need is an extra 4kg to carry around to make them slower,
or $500 more to make them less affordable.
