Really? Cannot be. For 25k 250cc bike.



It's a stupid thing to omit due to cost. And here I am wondering what else they would include due to the price hike.

The vstrom 250x has ABS.

No ABS on gravel really hard to go a fast since it's really really really really easy to lose the front.
You slide the front on gravel say bye bye see you in the river. Or bush. Or ditch.

Braking is done with single hydraulic discs front and rear, with dual-piston callipers while ABS is omitted.

Hopefully it's included since the price now is even higher than the original sticker price during kawasaki.

Why you want a no abs bike?

Any bike with abs can be modded to switch off the abs either by switching the fuse or sensor.
Either way abs is better even in offroad condition for most people.

I suppose it depends on the ABS actuator. I hate the front ABS on my dominar in an off road scenario (understand it was not built for that sort of duty). Everytime my front tyre gets off the ground, ABS is triggered leaving no front brakes because the actuator/sampling rate is really slow to recover. So instead of the front washing out, you get no brakes. biggrin.gif . Brown pants moment when going downhill.

Jumping speed humps going down genting will also lead to no brakes to slow down for the corner. Have to be very precise on braking. Can only initiate braking (I tend to trail brake all the time) once the front tyre is firmly on the ground ..if not that 1-2 second delay from the ABS will mean you won't slow down enough or able to transfer weight to the front for the upcoming corner. biggrin.gif

Can.. but not got off my lazy ass to put a switchable fuse bypass. I need a 10mm socket to get off my seat to get to the fuse box, so it's not exactly convenient until I get the switchable bypass.
