I have not found an 1800 with ABS? Were these bikes originally sold with different trim levels, option packages or was everything spec @ order, or just take what you get off the floor?
  Was ABS an option? While I'm rolling here and it's my thread so I'm not hijacking...Has anyone added the pod lights and is this an easy plug n play install? Harness and plug just waiting behind the plastic for hookup?

TIA

I did the Hondaline pod lights, they're easy and work well. Some others
did a particular aftermarket set (BBT?) and liked them. I think they said
it was easy, but maybe they had to splice something in... I liked the
plug-and-play of the Hondaline, and it adds a nice OEM looking button
on the left radiator backing panel... you should be able to search up
numerous threads about both kinds from back in 2014 and 2015 on
the 1800 side of the board...

ABS is hard to find and only in available in black.
All bikes in Canada have ABS but that is a long haul for you.
The back brake can be a little touchy is ABS or licked brakes would be nice.
