Front brakes complete failure resulting in an accident. Abs failed & instead of reverting to non abs it locked out the brake system resulting in no brakes. This is a design flaw on 2008 & up harley's with abs. I believe that an investigation & recall are in order please. I was slightly injured, this can lead to fatalities!!

The abs control module failed causing loss of brakes. A search of the internet revealed that this is a common problem with harley davidson abs brake systems. There was no indicator light or warning that the problem existed just sudden brake failure. Luckily i was just moving the motorcycle around the yard when the problem occurred and was able to safely roll to a stop. Had this happened at highway speeds or in traffic the results could have been catastrophic. This vehicle has less than 8,000 miles on it and is garage kept in a climate controlled building. Any help or advise would be appreciated and i hope this can help or possibly save the lives of other riders.

The front brakes were fine going to work but when i left work the front brake lever was stiff as a board and had no front brakes. The bike was not in motion when i discovered the problem.

I was driving at 40 mph on a 45 mph 6 lane county road and a car cut in front of me. I downshifted one gear and grabbed the front brake lever and stepped on rear brake pedal. They were both as hard as a rock and i had no brakes. I jumped the curb and rolled into a grassy embankment and the bike fell on me. I had no brakes and rode home with a car behind me with flashers on, less than one mile home.
