ABS fault.. - slap - 01-06-12
Hi all, Just thought I'd post this for anyone else with a similar problem.
I have a ABS model FZ1 & while out riding last week the ABS warning light came on. while the bike was still safe to ride it did sort of make me uneasy getting a lick of speed on.
When home a took both of the pick up sensors out of the wheels & gave them a good clean, the rear one was quite heavy with dust & crap, probably because its more exposed than the front. Once refitted I went out for a test ride & the warning light has not come on.

Nice tip :thumbup
As you said, it's still safe to ride so don't feel uneasy. Mine hasn't got ABS and I can't say I even think about it whilst braking.

Cheers,
The ABS option wasn't really a selling point for me. I wanted a white model & it came at a good price with lots of extras. I did think about dumping the ABS system off & will do if it does go permanently wrong.
