I bought the bike new. The difference between the Non ABS used at 3 years old and a brand new 2016 with ABS and the color I want was about $2,000. To me this was a worthy difference.
I recently purchased a 2016 Yamaha R1M. It has a seriously impressive electronics suite, including linked ABS, slide control, wheelie control, launch control, semi-active Ohlins suspension, etc, etc. It makes heroes out of zeros. Anyone who claims that electronic aids - including ABS- are useless should probably consider a career as a Moto GP rider. Or maybe they're just delusional.

I'll post some pics when I get it :-)
congrats on the purchase!
