'14 Street Glide ABS light with linked brakes issue

GREAT TOPIC HOGPRO, cool that you are looking into it and being open in your discussion, that's very very professional of you!!!!
So since we know that running anything bigger then a 21" wheel will set an abs speed sensor code and I went with a 26" on mine (I welded in a slip fit kit) I really didn't want to worry about the abs not functioning properly. And until someone comes up with a computer flash or inline speed sensor adjuster I wanted something more confident in "my braking".
So the simplest fix was I ran the front hoses straight to the master cylinder on my bike and simply blocked off the 3 ports on top of the abs unit. this means I'm abs on the rear and no abs on the front. It works great and since the front brakes are at least 75% of braking I think its the safest best way until someone comes up with a fix for it.
Yes the abs light is still on but my braking is awesome and I don't worry about stopping power thats for sure.
Heres a pic of the blocked off abs unit. ride safe, paul

Also, since you have a workaround already for the 21" with a certain tire, would you still recommend using this for 21" setups?
