Ummm wouldn't ABS provide LESS bite up front than no ABS at all?

ABS pulsates the brakes providing less stopping power and no lock up, no?

ANY braking there will lighten the rear end and cause it to step out. Thus the whole "brake in a straight line" theory.

And it only applied to the left caliper?
