scubascuba3 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 i have the non ABS standard model which is totally fine, but for newbies i can understand why they may go for ABS or just practice not grabbing the front brake in an emergency braking situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where proper training comes in. You shouldn't get use to grabbing the brake hard no matter what system you have. Practice is essential in knowing how hard you can grab the brake and ABS is a useful tool for doing that for learners. Learning the limitations of the bike you ride and the limitations of you as a rider whatever bike you ride is essential.

ketilnm Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 The thing is, the abs version of the click 160 has disc break in the rear, (Witch is better then drum break) and in the front the disc is alot bigger then the disc on the non abs version.. The caliper may be diffrent too, i can not say for sure, but it has a diffrent color then the non abs version. I can not say for the click 160 non abs version, but i did have the click 150, and the breaks was not good. (Non abs and drum in the rear) Now i own a adv 150, (abs in front and disc in the rear) And the breaks are night and day compare to the click 150.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extra CCs on the 160 was to make up for loss of power due to emissions control apparently. But yeah great bike. Only annoyance I find is the lack of dampening on front end. Feels like a 1950s Cub over small bumps lol. And yes pressures reduced from the standard showroom 100,000PSI ???? Perhaps the Michelins would help….
