Description of the problem	While riding my 2009 harley davidson streetglide my abs braking system appeared to fail. I was at a stop waiting for traffic to clear so that i could safely pull out. When i started to pull out a car "from nowhere" appeared. I had to brake. When i did, the abs braking system activated and caused the motorcycle to "freewheel" . In other words my brakes did not work. I had to stop the bike by putting my feet down. The pavement was dry and clean and i was going less than 5 mph... No reason for the abs brakes to activate. When i attempted to stop i had the rear brake pedal depressed to it's fullest extent but no braking occurred. It's my understanding similar incidents have occurred with other people. The abs is a factory installed option and no modifications have been made to it. The motorcycle had approx. 5200 miles on it when this occurred. I strongly suggest your organization look into this matter. The motorcycle is presently in storage at my local harley davidson dealer and i have voiced my complaint to them. I had another problem with my front tire and harley seems slow to respond to theses types of complaints. Although after a call to hd directly i did get the tire problem resolved. And they did send out a bulletin to their dealers on the subject. Hopefully you can look into this matter before someone gets hurt or killed.
