    ABS light on

    Well, I just got this bike and didn't notice the ABS light wasn't supposed to stay on all the time. I downloaded the service manual and will be browsing it, but wanted to see if anyone had experience first. Any suggestions on where to start on troubleshooting ABS issues? Thanks.

    ABS light blinking

    I just replaced the rear tire on my 2011 and now the abs light is blinking. Everything went back easily. What am I over looking? One of the rear pads did fall out and had to put it back. Is that it, and do I just need to take the bike down the road?

    Picked up my FJR Gen1 ABS today

    Hi Guys, So I went and did it. Going to the FJR. I found a 2004 with 6200 miles on it. The PO put on fresh Michelins as part of the deal and I rode it home today. Definitely a nice machine that behaves very differently than the hooligan VMax. What's interesting is that both bikes make 145...

    Does the US Vmax have ABS?

    I was considering a new Vmax and noticed that the Yamaha US website doesn't mention anything about ABS, but the Canadian Yamaha site does. So does the US bike have ABS ? How about traction control? The US MSRP is $18K vs. the Canadian MSRP of $23K :( I can easily buy a US bike and...

    What is the first year w/ ABS

    I am looking to buy a used V Max. What Years do they offer anti lock brakes? And, where is the best place to find a good deal for one? E bay or Craig's List have had the best prices so far in my search.

    ABS brakes on a 1st Gen Venture ???? Tweety Wants them !!

    Getting closer to winter and I have been mulling over the idea of fitting a set of ABS brakes to Tweety for its annual winter upgrade. Not as far fetched as it may seem. The technology is out there and proven. It is just a matter of integrating an existing system onto a 1st gen Venture...

    Question for the car mechanics -ABS failure

    Brothers and sisters The ABS braking feature recently failed on my '03 Protege 5. I don't miss it at all - in fact, I've disliked it since the day I bought the car. I know how to drive without locking up the brakes - I don't need this feature! My question- will the disabled ABS affect the...

    Chemicals and plastic repair

    I gotta repair some abs plastic. I've heard you can use typical abs cement for plumbing pipe. Also heard you can make your own glue, paste, or putty by mixing abs shavings and Acetone. My question is, can Methyl Amyl Ketone could be used in place of Acetone and produce the same results? Not...
