    Flashing fuel light and ABS light staying on at idle (hunting)... Anyone seen this before?

    Hi guys, Had a very strange one the other day on my 821 Hyperstrada... On my way home from work the bike started hunting at idle when stopped at the lights. It then stalled a couple of times when the fuel light started flashing (had plenty of fuel) and the ABS light stayed on (again at idle...

    ABS warning.

    Yesterday, on my way home from work in pouring rain, I noticed a rear wheel lockup ( Urban Mode - DTC -8 ABS -2 Engine low ) on braking. The ABS light was a steady on. I shut off the engine, restarted ( Key off, kill-switch off and then on again ). As soon as I rode off, the light went off ( as...

    Abs levels

    Is there a difference in stopping distance between the ABS levels? It seems logical that if a higher level ABS setting cuts in sooner, then it prevents achieving maximum braking force. A lower setting that lets the tyres slip more before cutting in but still preventing slides would allow you to...

    Mushy front brake and no ABS after 3k miles

    Did some cursory searching but didn't find much beyond the usual complaints about brake feel. Woke up yesterday to a slightly mushier front. At the same settings the lever would hit my middle finger under hard braking (still stops fine) whereas it didn't before. Being the nervous person I am...

    Effect of different tires on DCT & ABS?

    the owners manual states that the operation of the ABS and DCT will be altered by the use of different tires. It doesn't say how..... I noticed that my ABS seems more aggressive with the TKC80s installed. Anybody else found noticeable differences in the operation of these features using...

    turned off abs and dtc in sport mode

    I turned it all off, its a whole new bike. Front wheel lifts easy and the back slides real easy. I am not a fan of all the electronics. It could be me but it seems to run stronger with everything off. The flashing abs is annoying, wouldn't you think if I turned it off the light would be off.

    Power, ABS & DTC settings

    So what do you guys normally use? It would be interesting to see a comparison of the type of riding we all do, and the relative settings we use. For me: Roads: Mostly city/urban, some country Power: Sport DTC: 0 (I find it too sensitive even on 1 for some reason) ABS: 2

    High Beams and ABS

    Hello all! :) How do you turn the high beams on? The manual is not helping me. A few pictures would be great to help me. Also, is there a way to turn off the ABS? This is my first bike with ABS and I do not really like it. Thanks! Rene

    ABS dash light

    Is it normal on other Hyperstrada's that after you start the bike and you're stationary that the ABS light is on steady.. then you start to move forward then it goes out until you stop again?

    ABS Sensitivity

    How sensitive is the ABS on your bike? My Strada seems to activate on the rear wheel for next to nothing. I must admit that some of the black top roads in South Africa are not good and are rippled or bumpy, bot quire often whilst braking normally the rear wheel ABS kicks in with even the...

    Handling of the bike with ABS

    Hello, although I have had numerous bikes over the years I never owned a bike with ABS brakes and would like some info on the handling of the bike under extreme braking. As said I have no experience with ABS on a motorbike - with a car it is possible to steer when the ABS is active - is...

    How good is the ABS!!!!

    Have had the Hyper for 3 days now and can't believe how well the ABS works.... Never had this on a bike before. I feel much safer knowing the bike will stop faster than I have been able to achieve on previous bikes. :D
