ABS issue after new front tyre

(1/4) > >>

Shillas:
Had a new front tyre fitted this morning prior to leaving for Wooli. Should have been in on Monday afternoon / Tuesday morning at latest, but that's another story.

Anyway, fitted this morning & left for Wooli via Broken Hill. About an hour into the ride, hit a couple of bumps & ABS  warning light came on.  Pulled over, quick check, restart and all fine.  Then happened again 10 minutes later. Restart, fine.

Next time, ABS & TCS flashing.  Restart, all fine.

And again, but as brakes not seeming to be affected, hit the ABS / TCS button on the dash, flashing stopped, left with steady red ABS warning light.

There does seem to be a bit of play with the brake unit.

So, looks like the wheel &  brake unit not correctly re-installed.

I don't believe it is impacting on the ride, braking or safety, but any advice would be welcome.

Cheers

Michael.

 I'd be looking for loose bolts on the brake assembly.
And some tools to tighten them.

On the ST1300 the air gap for the ABS sensor needs to be set correctly ( little feeler gauge in tool kit) otherwise will throw up ABS fault, maybe same applies to ST1100 🤓

It’s normal for calipers to have some play but definitely no loose bolts, I wouldn’t be riding till you have checked that Sir Shillas. Ride safe and see you at Wooli.

Shillas's bike is a ST1100, so I'm  not sure if the same applies.

Who did the tyre install for you??   :well
