I would like to turn off my R1150R ABS for when I ride down slopes on forest and farm roads (which I like to do).

1. Has anyone installed a GS ABS switch on a Roadster to accomplish this, or can anyone guide me to a technical information source on this topic?

2. The ABS on my old R1100R (with ABSII) could be overridden by simultaneously depressing certain switches in a certain manner when turning on the ignition/power. Does anyone know if there is a similar procedure to accomplish this on an ABSIII equipped bike? The servos (damn them!) would still have to function even if the ABS function was overridden.

Thanks.

Nice photo, Fred. Having grown up in PA, I thought that I was back home. For those not familiar, this is considered an improved road in PA.

That's Tioga County between Wellsboro and the New York border.
