ABS

Got a manual with the bike?
Can get them from here: http://www.motorworks.co.uk/vlive/Shop/Parts.php?T=5&NU=15&M=30&Ct=SN&SbCt=BA_15_30_SN_60
IIRC with the ignition off, press the ABS button and fire up then engine, the lights then flash alternately and there's no ABS. Switching the ignition off resets the ABS.

Tried that and nothing changed. No ABS lights or anything.
I am at a bike meet tonight so hoping to find a GS owner to quiz.

Hi B4ndit - when you say "never", that includes when you switch the ignition on (but before you start the engine)?
They should definitely come on when you turn the key, and then go off completely when you start the engine and pull away (the ABS needs the wheels to move a bit before priming itself with a "chunk!" noise)
Hi,
No they never come on. And I don't get a clunk.
On my Bandit with ABS the light comes on and stays on till you are doing 10 mph then it goes out.
I have a feeling my ABS has been disconnected which is not a major problem.
Or can it all be disabled by removing a fuse? Haven't got round to that as I have no terms of reference to check it out against.

Is it definatly an ABS model, or a non abs and someone has replaced a broken switch gear with a used ABS switch gear as that was all that was available (seeing as the switch gear is nearly £200 new).
Does your bike have ABS wheel sensors, and has it got the abs unit under the tank.
