Description of the problem	Abs hcu suddenly failed causing front brake lever to become so hard it is almost unsqueezable. Luckily this happened while stationary in my garage on initial ignition on cycle. I understand things fail but for abs to fail in a way to loose all braking without warning is rediculous. How could nhtsa let harley davidson blame this on fluid or consumer? Are you implying that harley touring owners of 2008-11 are the only ones who didnt flush brake fluid? My fluid was always flushed. Its a defective module. Come on nhtsa wake up!
