Default Removing ABS
I have a 2009 Ultra Classic that I'm de-ultra'ing. Would like to know whats all involved to take the abs off other than take the pump out and new brake lines? The sensors on the wheels and what not? Any help is appreciated and I don't care if the abs light is always on-it is anyway.

Why don't you meet up with the guy in this thread and swap. He wants ABS you don't.

You should get together with Barchetta. He's looking to add ABS to a 12 Street Glide. It looks like some of the parts would fit his SG.

Thanks, that helps me get rid of most of it maybe. But can anyone tell me what's all involved? I mainly just need to know about the sensors at the wheels.. do they have to be spaced different? can I put non abs sensors in the wheels? etc...

You will need non-abs wheel bearings and probably different spacers. This site will help you determine the different parts for ABS and Non-ABS.
