    Another way to turn the ABS off is to get it up on the centre stand, start it up and run it through 1st and 2nd gears, and as long as the front wheel is not spinning the bike will turn the ABS off, keep it running and drop it off the stand and Bobs your Uncle! 🎉

    Hey! Where'd the ABS go!?!
    Well damn, I need something like that for my 390.
    Instead of me needing to press:
    Triangle, R2, Left, L1, X, Right, Triangle, DOWN, Square, L1, L1, L1,-- Y, RT, Left, LB, A, Right, Y, DOWN, X, LB, LB, LB*
    to switch off ABS, all I would need is ...
    click!

    Could you put bullet connectors on the wires that feed the spade connector in the fuse box so you could cut a smaller hole in the fuse cover? Nice video. Thanks for sharing.

    • @TheBeardedGrump
      @TheBeardedGrump  8 месяцев назад

      That could be possible but I would try to keep connections like that to a minimum. I don't think there's a lot of current running through it but you don't want it to fail. You can always use the 3d print file that comes with this kit to print a new cover that is taller that doesn't have to be cut. Hope this helps. Thanks and thanks for watching. I really appreciate it 👊

    well done product.. but i have a question... did you used a mini blade fuse to build the circuit? but the fuse box of the v-strom doesn't ha a low profile mini fuse instead? Just asking because i tried to solder the wire myself to a mini fuse an it was a pain in the a.... thanks

    Have you tried just taking out one of the abs sensor ring on either wheel to see if that would disable it?

    • @TheBeardedGrump
      @TheBeardedGrump  Месяц назад

      I never tried it. Unfortunately I crashed on this bike a little over 7 months ago and broke my back and sold the bike the way it was. I have a KTM 990 now but my brother still has a 14 V-strom. I might see if he'll try that to see if it works.

      Unfortunately not. It doesn't have a separate circuit for front and rear. Once you pull the fuse or install this switch it disables both

    I am really concerned about such an install. The circuit is rated 25 amps (meaning it is normal to see up to 25 amps on the wires and fuse will blow out if it is more). Now, the wires you connect are quite long and are basically an extension of the circuit. The problem is that from the looks of it, the wires are not 25 amps @12V rated, so when ABS is active and hard working, chances are to melt the wires and cause a fire. I think, for my install, I will go with a switch on a relay and ensure that everything that is 25 amp related is rated appropriately . Anyway, thank you for the video and info on the 3d model of the lid.

    • @TheBeardedGrump
      @TheBeardedGrump  9 месяцев назад

      The guy I got it from has been running it for a long time with no issues but I can understand your concern. I haven't turned the abs back on since I installed the switch so I don't really have to worry about it. Your idea sounds like a really solid one and should work well.

      Do you mean why disabled abs? If so because it makes riding off road more fun and safer in certain situations. When you're going down a loose downhill section it makes a big difference.
