ABS Conversion

[SportsterDoc]

Much cheaper to look for a ABS model from any year than to convert one.
Bleeding the ABS system on the CB 1100 is very easy , especially if you use vacuum bleeder and air compressor and speed bleeders .

I think you mentioned that before. Good to know. Although a valve adjust is super simple and accessible on the V7II, changing the clutch is more than expected on a M/C. Just the nature of the beast.

Just the ABS modulator for a ‘17 is $1400 USD list. Plus the wiring, hoses brackets, tone ring and sensor and all. Plus, maybe a different ECU (don’t really know.

Heck, buy a bike with ABS and be done with it. Cheaper, and you know it will work correctly.

Doubt it matters, since that $1,400 plus everything else should scare off 99.9% of us, but the ECM appears to not be involved and both ABS and non-ABS have the same connections (A-1 to A-33 and B-1 to B-33). Modulator is powered from fuse H (not present on non-ABS).

Since I probably came across negative, I thought I would add a positive note!

Popgun, does the service manual have a hydraulic schematic? Don't need it, just curious if available.
