:dred11 Hi just bought a 2000 Model ST, Intro my name is Don ( sidecardon ) a few of you will now me from the GTR-AUS forum have been riding Outfits,Sidecars,for a long time at a guess 28-29 Years. So naturally the ST has a Sidecar attached. Question is there any other members with Sidecars on this Forum ?? I will be flying up to Townsville on Sunday 26 th and part with some hard earned cash and riding it back to Central Coast Gosford on Sat-Sun should be a pretty good trip weather permiting I'm still riding it. 😏

Hi and welcome from SA,
Missed this post......could have been anything from a blown globe (there's two) or a fuse. Any fault in the ABS would have the warning light on all the time unless the globe/s were removed
In case your not aware
ABS/TCS/CBS
Traction Control (TCS) is switchable on/off via LH switch on fairing filler panel. Orange warning lights should come on at start and go off after system self test. If you switch TCS off then one warning light should stay on...I always leave mine on so I've never tested that.
ABS is self explanatory but should any apart of the system fail you get the red warning lights (on or blinking??) and system reverts back to non-ABS braking. The warning lights stay on at start and go off within a few feet after the self test. If a warning light comes on while riding it is advised to stop, turn off the engine and restart as normal, if the light stays on after that then the system needs to be checked. In eight years I've only had the light come on twice and all has been ok after restarting. The RH switch next to the TCS on/off is there to turn off the ABS warning light should it become annoying
CBS.... Combined Brakes......
foot pedal directly operates centre pot on all three callipers........fairly even braking on it's own
hand brake directly operates outer pots on front two callipers .......better braking on it's own compared the pedal
Also any braking on the front wheel (by hand or foot) also indirectly operates the rear outer calliper pots via a secondary master cylinder above LH front calliper.
Foot and Hand together.....even better braking again......especially when towing
The Honda manual also advises that when replacing pads on the ABS model that you replace all pads at the same time.
