I do know this, that most likely no shop would do that for you. doing it yourself, well,. you're on your own.

sorry, I meant liable , meaning responsibility for the action. thats up to them, not my name on the top of the header, I do think that this is a little different than "most" other mods discussed here

I am pretty sure I said it can be done. No one told the op that it is ok to do or that he should disable anything. The system will also disable itself if it detects a fault, returning the brakes to a non-abs system. Just like all non police harleys built before 2008.

Pretty slick how you edited your first post in this thread, (pretty obvious by the time stamp) so that you no longer have any accountability by telling him HOW to do it.

No more liability on your part. Glad you realized you live in California, lawsuit capital of the world.

My point is where does that line get drawn? But if the forum decides that is where they want to draw it, well it's their sand box and they can run it any way they want.

I could tell you how to go screw yourself, does that make me responsible if you go ahead and do it?

I don't think I ever said otherwise, I did express surprise that they didn't pull it, If it were me, I would, its not. and like I said before, not my problem. I'm not disagreeing with you on that point.

I told you that was going to happen way back on page 1, post #7. Not exactly as I had prophesized, but you get the idea.

I don't know of many semi's that can stop as fast as a motorcycle can, so if you end up with your face planted in the rear of one I'd have to say that had more to do with your actions than that of your braking system, short of complete failure.
