‘07 R1200RT - No ABS Communication, Options?

[engifar117]

Hello all, I’ve been lurking in the forums for a while trying to figure out the problem with my R1200RT. Long Story short, I used a GS911 to determine that my 2007 R1200RT (56k miles) has the No Communication from ABS error. I’ve confirmed with module masters that this is an issue that their repair process cannot correct.

I’m now trying to figure out my options and would greatly appreciate any insight.

Right now I see three options, none of which I particularly like.

1.Take the bike to BMW and have them repair it. I expect this repair will cost more than the bike is worth, so not ideal

2.Try to sell the bike with the error in hopes that someone more savvy than myself wants to take on the challenge. I don't even know what to ask for in value.

3.Replace the ABS Module and hope it works without needing a dealership computer to make it work.

Are there any ideas I’m missing? Or any advice?

Thank you in advance

If it's got servo brakes, remove the ABS, viewtopic.php?p=60328&hilit=removing+abs#p60328

Going by the BMW service sheets, my '07 hasn't had the ABS working for over 5 years. The brakes still work fine and pass our annual ministry test every year.
I just used a Sharpie colour on the flashing lamp. This is a known problem, it can be an expensive fix. Personally, being brought up with a bike that didn't have ABS, it doesn't bother me.

My main concern with this issue is that my speedo won’t work without the ABS Controller. Are there ways to make the speedo work?
