After I solved my ABS (bleeding) problems last year - not entirely painless - today I start trusting in those people who say ABS is just another pain on a m/c. Here is why:
My ABS light goes off after launch, but then comes on, every now and then ... 5-10-20 miles. Sometimes it goes off after a while. Sometimes one has to toggle the ignition key. Guess, sound like a sensor problem to me, in particular since the baby has seen a lot of dirt in the last few weeks. Alrighty, I clean everything - doesn't help.
So I check the SM, it says wheel sensors cannot be adjusted, "make sure nothing is bent". Thank you. Value should be 0.02 - 0.05 in, and so I check. Front is straight, clean and looking good, with 0.03 in. Next back, everything is un-bent, clean, straight and looking good. And I read 0,01 in. I see nothing which could explain the unexpectedly small gap. Spinning the wheel - same result everywhere.
Could this explain my light coming on ? I'd rather not bring all those greenbacks and ask the dealer.
