Description of the problem	My front brake lever froze not allowing application of the front brake. I went into my garage and did my normal pre ride check which includes testing the brake lever/pedal feel, everything was normal. I started the bike checked the lights and turned it off after i was through. I then went to back my motorcycle out of the garage which is on a slight decline and went to apply my front brake lever to stop the bike... It would not move. Thankfully the rear brake was still functional and i got the bike stopped before any damage could be caused. I called my local dealership and they said it sounded like an abs hcu failure and that they would be glad to check it out for me. I went into the house and looked up harley abs failure and found out there were several cases like mine. This is a very dangerous situation and needs to be dealt with.
