 Description of the problemAfter riding the motorcycle normally for approximately 30 minutes, i stopped at my destination and shut down the bike normally. Approximately 20 minutes later, i got back on the bike to go back home. At this point, i found my right front brake lever was froze up and would not move at all. I had the bike towed to my harley dealer to correct the problem. The service manager at the dealership called me a few days later and told me the abs hydraulic control unit was bad. He also told me when the bike was brought in, the rear brake was also froze up. I authorized the dealer to replace the hydraulic control unit to fix the bike. A couple of days later, the service manager called me and told me the abs electronic control unit was also bad and needed to be replaced. After researching on the internet, i found that this is a common problem with certain harley davidson motorcycles. My major concern is that i could have been riding on the interstate when the brakes failed and i could have been hurt or killed. I think this is a design flaw in the abs system. If the system failed, the bike should at the very least revert to normal braking instead of abs. In my case, i had no brakes at all with no warning whatsoever.
