Have any of the bike owners here installed the TBC non-locking brake adapters to their bikes?. I have been reading about them today after doing a Google search for after market ABS brakes.

Purportedly, for about 80 dollars each (front and rear), you can get a 20 percent shorter stopping distance and the wheels will not lock up. It seems like a pretty good trade off if they work as advertised.

Studies show that motorcycle fatalities are reduced by about 37 percent by the use of ABS brakes on motorcycles. The TBC system is not an anti-lock ABS system which is electrical in design. The TBC system is a mechanical device which pulses the brake fluid to the brake allowing braking without as great a chance of the brakes locking up.
