 |
|
Wednesday I rode home- bike working great- No problems.
Had an hour or so- changed the trans & FD to synthetic. NOTHING ELSE!!!!
Cathy & I got on it for an evening ride.
#$!&%@!!# ABS lights are blinking!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll try a reset but like last year I expect that it'll "auto-reset" after a few weeks. Until then I'm using the black tape mod.
Flippin' ABS demons......

I got my bike good and warm last week, changed out the oil with Golden Sepctro full syn 90-145 GL5 rated.
No problems at all with nuttin. Leaks or ABS.
Did you bump the ABS ring sensor by accident?

Not that I can recall- both filler caps and both drain plugs came out easily.
No problem on the refill.
Torqued all back to spec.
But I'll check the gap at the rear ring. Thanks.

Did an ABS reset with connecting #2 to ground. Had to do it twice.
FIXED.
Then had a great 3 hour ride over the Kanc' and Bear Notch in light to medium rain.

Pity you didn't read the pulses, would have told you what the intermittant fault was. My guess is the rear ABS sensor or it's cable up to & including the connector. Unless you have ABS1 & used the radio whilst you did the job, then it's probably just a discharged battery. ABS1 (unlike ABS2) doesn't auto reset for low voltage.

Tim,
Thanks for the input. This is the first time in a year that it did this. If it happens again soon I will check it out.
BTW Radio? What radio?

Sorry, forgot that RS's don't have one, flattened batteries numerous times, listening whilst spannering.
