sure you can......
have a BMW
with servo assisted ABS
with the telelever front its difficult to get it up anyway
not a result of the abs
other ABS bikes find it far easier
without a doubt BMW has been doing it longer
& recently introduced traction control......."spin" control
for street models
as with any iteration
years of further testing & evaluation
under real world conditions will be the true test
that too will evolve as their ABS system has
no less ive ridden many different models
some do it extremely well
others you wonder
why bother.....????
still if you dont introduce
no progress is made
anyone remember the 1st mass produced bike with
computer fuel injection....

A friend told me his beemer came equipped with a switch that disables ABS.
Doing stoppies with a bike equipped with ABS seems to make about as much sense as a doing on a luggage equipped bike. But why even stunt "sport-tourers" when there are some real bikes waiting to be tortured; a station wagon is capable of powerbraking the rear tires but whats the point hehe

From the wheel speed logic it would be difficult to do a front brake assisted burnout cause when the ABS felt the back wheel turning and the front wheel still would it lighten front brake pressure untill the front tire was moving at the same speed...

Whats that have to do with ABS stoppies!? Thread highjacking, guess the ABS is a sleeper topic
