Hi everybody
I've just bought a 2016 cb1100 with 1700 miles on it. For some reason the ABS light doesn't go out. The bike is like new and runs beautifully, can anybody tell me what I need to do or how to rectify the abs light problem.
Much appreciation for any help on this.
Thank you

When you ride the CB at street speed, does it go out?
In addition, some recent and a little related said info can be found [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=13792]here.

There really isn’t enough info to tell you much. You have to be moving 6MPH for it to go out. Does it go out when moving? If not, read the thread he referenced and get back to us.

That's normal up to 10-20mph, at which point it should turn off. It shouldn't come on again after it goes away the first time. If it NEVER goes away, you may have a malfunctioning unit and you'll want to either do some troubleshooting (see a thread I started recently about my ABS issues) or take it to a dealer.
