    Hi Boys

    Just wondering if anyone else has had issues with there ABS on their bikes

    I posted a thread last year about a leaking radiator ( after I ran into someone )

    I ran into a pack of Pakkies on the M4, $4500 damage to the back of their Corolla

    while the nightrod didnt even have a scratch

    I was doing about 70kph when i tried to pull up

    the bike sounded like a machine gun when I pulled back on the front brake lever

    and was pulsating where it wanted to be released

    long and short I didnt have any breaks  - even though i was pulling up slowly

    i still collided into their rear bar

    That was a year ago, I had since explained and have had HD mechanics look at my brakes but they cant find anything wrong

    About two months ago the ABS light ( in the instruments ) now comes on after about 10 min of riding - I havent had it looked at as yet

    just wondering If anyone else has heard or experienced anything similar

    FT,
    i had both F & R ABS sensors replaced on my night rod '10 under warranty.
    light was on all the time.
    Front one had a hair-line crack and the rear one was faulty, ( so they say ).
    They re-placed both anyway.
    That was 10,000 km's ago, no issues
