Motorworks sell used ABS modulators, https://www.motorworks.co.uk/vlive/Shop ... 0_35_HA_70

Looks like they are supplied with a 6 months guarantee or Motorworks can supply parts to remove the ABS unit.

Hi yeah spoke to the guys there very helpful but did say they are not very reliable they have removed working ones refitted and failed, it's very straightforward to bypass. The guy I got the bike from rode it around for 2 years like it which must of be very challenging and  forward thinking when he needed to stop or slow down because it scared me to death riding it home Lol
