I don't have one for sale but I can't see that the ABS and non-ABS would be different. The mounts would be the same for each bike, I may be wrong however.

Bikebear,

Thats what I would have thought as well, but Streak assures me they are different.

Different enough for Classic to have separate listings for them.  Extract from their webpage:

I too would have thought there wouldn't be much difference but looking at the part numbers the swing arm is slightly different on the ABS model.

With a three pot calliper on the later ABS (from 1996) the calliper mounting bracket is different so the mounting point on the swing is different than the standard model.

The earlier ABS (95 and earlier) has another swing arm again (making 3 total) but uses the same non ABS rear calliper set up.

Is the difference in the brake setup enough to allow a slight change in the towbar design even though the exhaust mounts are the same on all models?
