Hello All,

what does the ABS switch on my 91 K100 RS do? I've tried a search, but I mustn't be using the right search terms.

Hi switzerr. The ABS switch is almost decorative but its only purpose is to turn off the flashinh lights that come on when a fault occurs in the ABS system. Apparently it is to prevent the rider being distracted by these flashing lights. Actually it does have a second purpose and that is in helping to reset the ABS computer to its default parameters but there are other things involved there.
