Some will never get it. Riding the bike hitting the brakes to kicking in ABS will not do the job. Flush it 20 times will not take car of the ABS unit.
Riding it on wet grass and locking up brakes will not clean it out.
If you have ever cycled the ABS unit with the tool you would understand why. The crud builds up in the ABS and it will not come out with the tricks we come up with. A cheap tool will do it for the life for your bike. Do you really expect HD to lower shop rates any time soon?
With my centurion I can do any year HD I can do my bike ,yours or anyone else.
Just get the dam until or pay someone.

No. What I'm saying is the bike has a 2-year warranty and fluid normally would be changed at 2 years. So if anything goes wrong the first two years with the ABS its covered under warranty.

Default Infomation Tech Mercenaries HD4

Reached out again to to Info Tech Mercenaries about their HD4. They are hoping to have it released in the "spring or summer" after some testing. They need a bike to finish up the testing. So if you're in their area (Washington State 509 area code), reach out. Maybe we can get this moving faster! They were very responsive on Facebook.

They quit answering my emails and taking my calls, so I said f it and took it to my dealer and it cost me 120 bucks. And by the way-as someone else said on here “don’t shoot me I’m only the messenger”- one of the salesman who I bullshit with quite a bit when I go there told me that according to their techs, if you flush your system yourself you’ll be fine-the small amount of fluid left in the system from not being able to activate the ABS won’t hurt anything. Again, not my claim, just repeating what I was told.
Sorry I don't check the forums much, but this is surprising to me. I answer phone calls and emails almost around the clock. So much so even to a fault (I've fielded calls on Thanksgiving day, Xmas eve, Sundays, you name it).

Just wanted to clarify as I'm curious as to how you were trying to reach me (I'm VERY easy to reach as any of my customers will attest to).

Also, we have supported 2019+ bikes for over 2 years now.
