TRIUMPH TIGER 800

ABS MENU FAULT



2011-05-25 - The setup menu on this bike is supposed to have an option for turning off the ABS. This bike had no such option. I took the bike to the dealership last week, and they hooked it up to the computer. After some fiddling, the bike was still the same. Except one thing, now there was a red light and a flashing symbol on the dash telling me my tire pressures were wrong. I don't have, nor can I put on, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System on this bike. The Triumph computer had no other options. Triumph decided to wait and take care of the bike when the experts could be consulted. When I brought the bike back, they swapped instrument clusters with another bike. Both bikes worked normally. They switched them back again and both bikes still worked normally. There was nothing changed, and no reason for the correction. I read the shop manual and there is some verbage about the different black boxes needing to talk to each other properly. I think there was just a glitch that needed a proper hard reset. It is possible that this might have required nothing more than removing the battery for a time period or some other odd juggling. Either way, it is fixed.
