sometimes old ways are better than newfangled computers
Harley needs to do something fast to many trikes if nothing else turn off ABS till they figure it out
So now every time I jump on my 20 Triglide I have to worry about hitting a guard rail at 70mph? Just GREAT!!!
Is there a way to over ride the computer control and turn them into standard brakes? :xzqxz:
Sadly, HD will not do a recall on this problem, that would be fodder for the law suit.
Should we be riding these things ? Thats some scarey shit ? Can you unplug the abs module and still ride it ? You would think harley would say weather or not they are safe to ride ? They no theres a problem how many people need to die or be hospitalize for them to step up and repair these things ?

The problem is they put the guard rails to close to the road you can’t avoid hitting them they should move them out into the woods😱🤔😁..

Glad you pointed this out Bob. Sometimes the answer is just so obvious.:Shrug: The other thing they need to work on is telephone poles. They can jump from the side of the road in a heartbeat. Barely avoided a couple back in my younger drinkin days.:xzqxz::laugh: if I remember abs disables it self when a fault code shows up. They then are basically standard brakes. Jack will know.
[COLOR=#000000][FONT="]Traction control is automatically enabled at each ignition start cycle. The rider may choose to disable traction control anytime the vehicle is at a complete stop and the engine is running by pressing and holding the traction control switch for one full second.[/FONT][/COLOR]
ABS cannot be disabled, you would have to do a work around the pump system
The majority of ABS lock up problems were already fixed after HD first debuted ABS on model years 2008-2018
However 19 and 20 models also had a recall for a software problem
I had a software recall a month after I bought my 2019 triglide

I just unplugged my two rear wheel abs sensor's . brake's still work good , don't have to worry , when you have a abs sensor go bad on a car you have regular brake's , I don't think mine ever worked any way's .
SIMPLE IS BETTER....:clapping:
I'm Probally Crazzzzy I rode my trike all day today with the rear A B S disconnected so there is no A B S or traction control or RDRS It seem's to handle so much better It's a totally different trike it seem's like it's a easyer to ride and handle's better ? It Can't be posable ?

What about the sensor on the front wheel? Is that not linked thru the ABS pump?
Are there any codes besides the obvious?
I assume your ABS light on the speedo is on?

Yes A B S light on , traction control light is on, once one sensor is bad or disconnected the A B S is disabled .
