    How can you physically tell if a VFR has ABS or not? I looked at the 06 VFRs ABS and without but I can't seem to tell which one is which.

    If it has ABS there should be a knob to adjust the rear suspension on the right side next to the passenger peg. If no ABS, then there isn't the knob. Easiest way I know of to tell. I couldn't find a pic, but if I come accross one I'll post it.

    Besides the non-slip factor of having an ABS, is there any other advantages? What about disadvantages?

    Is it worth the hassle of installing ABS if one finds a good deal on a NON-ABS VFR? Do you know how much it might cost?

    I apologize for all the questions.

    nother way to tell is to look at the fronk disc brake on the inside closet to the center for what looks like a gear and an extra pick up sensor, as far as if it's worth it? Hmm for me it's a NO, but for some it may be just the ticket. personlly anything that makes a bike more complecated is a negitive IMO
