Brake Fluid Change and ABS

On my C10 I used a mighty vac to change the brake fluid. Someone told me, that with ABS I should not use it, but only do the tradional pump the lever, open the bleeder, close when the lever touches the bar. Is it true that I should not use the mighty vac with ABS?
 
Dave, you can safely use the mighty vac on a ABS equipped bike or car for that matter. As always be sure to keep the master from getting too low while your bleeding/flushing the system out. I like to clean out the master and add fresh fluid before I pull the fluid through the rest of the system.
