Front brake lever is very hard to pull, front brakes won't engage. This happened as i was riding on the highway and getting ready to exit. I tried to pump the brakes and it got better but only for a few minutes. I called my mechanic and he told me it was the abs control module. He said it's been happening for years with harley davidson's faulty design. This seems to still be happening even with bikes newer than mine. How many more lives have to be lost because of harley davidson's faulty equipment. I would like to add that my mechanic use to do all the warranty work for the harley dealership in augusta, ga he is a very knowledgeable and reputable and honest mechanic. *tr

While riding my bike, i observed traffic stopping/slowing ahead. I tried to pull my front brake lever and it would not move at all. No give whatsoever. Luckily i was not in an emergency brake situation so i down shifted more rapidly, used my rear brake and came to a stop. At the next ramp, i got off the freeway and pulled into a gas station. When i tried my front brake lever again. This time it was pulling back, but needed a lot of force. In another minute i tried again and it felt normal, and engaged the brake. I continued home without incident. The next couple times i rode it didn't feel right. Then last week it felt fine and was working fine. The all of the sudden i tried to brake w/the front and it jammed again. I tried a little more pressure, and it began to move. After about an inch of travel, it gave all the way and locked the brake. I was going slow enough that the wheel didn't skid, but i ended up on my gas tank up against my fairing! I was not injured, and there was no damage to my bike, but if i had been on the freeway, my well being would have been at a huge risk. After seeing a mechanic, and going online to research this, i found out that the abs module, is causing the problem. I am not alone in this as i have heard this from quite a few people over the past few days. I don't know if you have heard of this, but i wanted to get this out there, so you have a report on this, so maybe you folks can look into this. Brake systems aren't suppose to kill riders, in my opinion. Thank you for your time.
