No I didn’t???
Took my bike in to have the brake fluid replaced. While dropping it off I asked if they could see what the deal with my ABS was.
Tech: When did the ABS stop working.
Me: After I put my front wheel back on after a tire change. I think I might have pinched the wire or something.
Tech: Dumb question? Do you think you might have put the wheel on backwards?
Me: (Laughing) No way!
After a quick look by Me and the Tech the wheel was on backwards!
Okay fella’s let the jokes commence!

I did that on my '99 Ultra I had. I had a new front tire put on and they guy that mounted the tire put the tire on backwards. When I put it back on the bike I put it on with the tire going the right direction. I broke 2 speedometer drives before I figured out the problem.

ABS in reverse is traction control, not so good on a motorcycle when the only drive wheel is in back,...usually.
