  1. My first experience with anti-lock brakes was very similar, except I was in a pick up truck and the dirt road I was on ended on a highway with lots of traffic. I agree, in unexpected slippery conditions such as washboard roads, ABS can be dangerous. That's why dirt bikers do not like them. I've had similar experiences in my truck as well, hit a bump just wrong and it won't stop.
  2. How long have you been riding with the fuses removed? I'd like to wire in a switch like stated above, but I just don't want it upsetting or damaging the bike(throwing a check engine code or something similar to a car where the computer starts limiting power etc). Thanks Not long, no codes or issues yet but I'll keep you posted.
  3. I apologize if it was taken as spreading misinformation. I specifically used words like feel, maybe, and opinion for that reason. I used 70% as purely a reference for what I feel. I understand why many people may feel differently about this, I do stand by my opinion. And as far as using the word dangerous I did finish with a lol, just throwing out some sense of humor. I do feel it's a little unsettling when a bike doesn't react normally under hard braking.
  4. I understand wanting to have a bike in its pure form without having as many of the electronics.. but how does ABS make a bike dangerous? I personally feel when the abs is triggered you're only getting maybe 70% braking power. I just don't feel like the technology is better than a human hand, not yet anyway. But again just my opinion, to each there own.
  5. I removed the 2 abs fuses under the seat and problem solved! I hate abs, I think it's dangerous, and degrading to motorcyclists as a whole lol.
