Whilst in Dent a warning and Brake Failure light came on and bit of back brake confirmed no ABS was working...
On the way home I stopped to change the preload but it would not allow it, which made me think 'wheel sensor' and the bike does not know Ive stopped.
Also a quick scroll through the info while moving showed the 'oil' which is normally only seen while stopped.
Wheeled the bike out of the garage today and it allowed me to change the preload however a trip to the garage to fill up for the weeks duties showed the speedo not working for about two miles but then it started.
Now I've a 330BMW and that's had several wheel sensors replaced after it's told me I've no ABS or traction control or even that clever stuff that supposedly stops exiting a bend backwards, so with all this insight I'm guessing...
My brake failure is not due to some expensive ABS pump thingy but just the wheel sensor or something associated to it...
BTW I may have been over zealous with the jet wash around the brake calipers and the wheel sensor.
What's the wise verdict of the 'knowledgable'
