I had the same problem after the front wheel bearing were replaced. The front ABS wheel sensor clearance was now out of spec. Made the adjustment and the brakes returned to normal. |

I had one installed on my 93' K1100RS, worked good. I think the difference on the installation is where the remote canister is installed depending on if you have ABS I or ABS II. |

Remember to check the ABS sensor gap when reinstalling the front wheel. New wheel bearings can change the gap and make the ABS behave with unpredicable results. DAMHIK. |
