Default ABS or not?

So the new 600RR has the option of ABS.

Adding ABS costs an extra $1000 and adds 20LB to the overall weight...

From the article I read, it works great and has almost no drawbacks aside from the price and weight.

What would you do? I may be picking up a new RR in the future and this will be something I'll have to decide on. So I'd like to hear your opinions.

ABS or not?

There has been a lot of positive reviews on the ABS.

i'd wait until sometime next year and see if you could pick one up as a leftover, i bet you could pick one up for under $1000 over the regular version
