Consumer Description

FRONT BRAKE LEVER BECAME HARD (NOT MOVABLE) DURING HIGHWAY RIDING. ONLY NOTICED IT BECAUSE A CAR PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME. FORTUNATELY I ALWAYS USE FRONT AND REAR BRAKE WHEN STOPPING OR SLOWING. A RIDER WITH LESS EXPERIENCE CERTAINLY COULD HAVE HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. AFTER SEARCHING FOR POSSIBLE REMEDIES IT HAS BECOME OBVIOUS THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH FIRST GENERATION HD ANTI-LOCK SYSTEMS.
