I believe ABS is the law in EU for two wheelers. Not in US, however......and really needed here as Americans seem to lack braking skills.
In Europe it is 150 (or 125's?) and up which now must have ABS - and since the USA does not produce a scooter, our new ones will have ABS by default.
I view this as a good thing for all scooter riders.

Karl, I did feel the ABS step in one time when forced to brake hard on a big wet white arrow with that slender front tire..
