ABS owners who replaced brake lines with Stainless
02/14/15 4:46 PM
As the title stated, Has any ABS owners replaced their brake lines with coremoto or the like? Did you have any issues with the ABS pump? What was the procedure? Also anyone have a picture with their gas tank off? I need to know if the two ABS lines go to left or right of the tank? How are they routed? Any help there would be appreciated.
Update
Got the lines run.
thanks

In that case I'm a huge pussy cause I would love ABS and TC on my gen 1.
Yeah I know. Then get a gen 2.
But in Australia we don't get blue gen 2's.
And I love the blue...

I love the blue gen 2 as well. Like you say, not available in Oz. I also like red and white Gen 2s!

Jimmy is just jealous because, from his avatar, it looks like he is stuck with a 2012 that did not even offer the option. But at least he has the really cool flames. It is my understanding that the flames actually help with braking and are not just really cool looking.
No have not changed my lines and did not plan on it. I have not had any issues with the ABS. Then again I am a pussy so what do I know.

"I need to know if the two ABS lines go to left or right of the tank? How are they routed? Any help there would be appreciated"
They run to the right and down to the brake block piece.From there...same setup as any other 14.
" Did you have any issues with the ABS pump?"...I would say...use the factory lines for this part.They're steel.

I got it all figured out. The service manual actually shows the routing in the very back of the book. Pulling the wiring harness through the frame was a bit of a pain but not too hard. ABS may be for "girls parts" but even the best riders could benefit from it in certain places.

Other than the bling bling factor why do you need them? If you take the bike to the track and ride with the fast guys the only thing you will need to replace will be the rotors. Change the org kawi break fluid for the Motul 600 stuff and you will never ever boil the fluid.
