Thanks, this video helped me save a bunch of time and hassle

[@moezhawk1420]

Great videos man. Keep them coming.

[@JPPerformance360]

Excellent video, explanation on your videos is superb

[@ESBKLife]

Thx John. Much appreciated bro!

[@alissonmelo1709]

Great job, I really like your channel!!! 👍👍👍👍

[@daniel-burlacu]

Love your videos ! :D lot to learn from it !

[@maxmeijer912]

Hey man, loved the video. Could you please tell what the intro song is? It's stuck in my head. Thanks bud!

[@ESBKLife]

It's titled "Saving Me" by artist KT

[@matthewb9766]

With scraping ABS pump you're deleting whole electronic package or TC will be still active just relying on engine management?

[@ESBKLife]

With this ABS delete module from alpha, it retains TC.

[@orlandoducati]

Is that abs system that introsive or something that you prefer? I have race mode on my panigale and I can very limited abs..

[@ESBKLife]

It can be. But this mod was more for weight reduction than anything.

[@TheKingmoncy]

can I have ur contact , I mean mobile number

[@bentilley975]

I looked up the abs delete part number you showed for the abs pump module on alphas site and it’s not coming up.. any way you can share a link for where you found that? I have the alpha racing block off plate for the abs delete which isn’t working because my lights are still staying on.. I would like to try the one you showed.. thanks! Video was great and bike looks awesome!

[@Black_Gold_Saw]

Derrick any news on the Wrecked MV Rebuild? Latest was that the fairings were getting painted.

[@ESBKLife]

Yep. Not just the fairings but, the entire bike. It will be a while before we see it again unfortunately 🙁

[@Black_Gold_Saw]

Thank you. Cant wait! So curious what you came up with :)

[@ESBKLife]

@@Black_Gold_Saw me too! 😀

[@daniel-burlacu]

what about the soft ? did you sent your ECU, key, dashboard together with the immobilizer controler to them ? so they could cancel it ?

[@TheVilouboy]

999 subscribers! Uno Mas..... What's up for that 1K subscriber D?! *Yo you brought back the original beat 👍🏽 "

[@ESBKLife]

Haha, I try to switch it up every now and then 😀

[@jamhans6667]

dose this module remove the abs warning light on the dash?

[@ESBKLife]

I believe it depends. Reach out to George at alpha racing if you're in the states and he can help you but, my understanding is it completely disables the ABS system while retaining traction control.

[@23looker]

Hey Derrick you still have PCV?

[@ESBKLife]

No I sold it. Sorry.

[@23looker]

Ok thanks.. Hmu sometimes we do a lot with the BMW's 310 867 1492 Quarter Mile@@ESBKLife

[@tarikben1726]

Hello Sir, I own 2013 S1000rr, my throttle has some give before it engage do you know how to make it tighter I tried the wires coming from the body but still I have some slag is there anywhere else I can try thank you

[@ESBKLife]

Hey Tarik. There are no cable adjustments on the throttle body assembly, so if you used the cable adjusters at the throttle then there’s really only 2 option left. Replace the cables or clear then reset adaptations. You’ll need a GS911 tool to do that. They run anywhere from $150 to $400 used vs new. No guarantee it’ll work, your cables just might be stretched too far. They run about $70 a piece and you need 2.

[@tarikben1726]

@@ESBKLife thank you

[@ankushnabh]

Hey Derrick, I installed the same module for my 2013, the speedometer now shows three dashes, when I plug the OEM abs module it shows the numbers on the dash for kms/hour, you think mine could be a faulty unit?

[@ESBKLife]

Not sure? You probably need to clear adaptations and reset everything.

[@seekaseat7955]

probably a stupid question.. but do you need to remove the abs pump when you the delete or just leave it if you dont wanna go through the headache

[@ESBKLife]

You can leave it in. There’s a block off plate you’ll need to get though.

[@callmekev1631]

As you've become my goto DIY S1000rr page, lol, Did you do that black and blue neoprene seat yourself?

[@ESBKLife]

I did🙂. I can't remember where I purchased the seat foam but, I had to cut and shape it to fit. I experimented with several adhesives, but 3M double sided tape works best.

[@callmekev1631]

@@ESBKLife Awesome, thanks! I'm in the process of converting my RR to primarily track only. The streets are getting rough. Palmer is on my to do list for next season, maybe I'll see you there.

[@jesseboswell6497]

Hi I have a question I bought the alpha racing plug plugged it in and my brake lights are still not working just wondering if you could point me in the right direction

[@ESBKLife]

Hey Jesse. Which alpha plug did you purchase?

[@jesseboswell6497]

Is the ABS elimination alpha racing plug

[@ESBKLife]

@@jesseboswell6497 ok that plug has nothing to do with your taillights. It simply allows you to remove all of the ABS components from the bike. If the taillights aren’t working, start with the most obvious things, bulbs, fuses, wire connections.

[@UhhChriss]

what year is your bike? i’m trying to figure out if that module will work for me. my bike is 2017

[@ESBKLife]

Hey Chris. It won’t but I believe Alpha Racing has one for your bike. Mine is a first gen 2011.

[@ericwilliams1977]

Have you changed the suspension? If so, Did you install the DDC module for the fault?

[@ESBKLife]

I did change the sus. I’m running GP Suspension 25mm cartridges up front and a Nitron Racing Pro out back. Both with a custom setup for my weight and the track. But I did not install the DDC module. My S1krr is a first gen. I don’t believe DDC was an option back then.

[@ericwilliams1977]

@@ESBKLife ok thanks for the reply. Currently converting my 2020 S1000rr to race next year. Gotta a lot of parts to change out. Just took the ABS out and ordered Ohlins cartridge kit and TTX GP shock. I saw a video where guy left the backing on the ABS pump, not sure why

[@ESBKLife]

@@ericwilliams1977 there are several ways to bypass the abs pump. One way is to disconnect the brake lines then put a backing plate on the pump to cover the line openings. Personally I prefer to remove the entire pump, eliminating abs and saving weight.

[@ericwilliams1977]

@@ESBKLife I agree, that’s the way I’m gonna do it. Gonna order new lines from Alpha Racing along with the delete modules for that and DDC and order some handle bar controls.

[@jieevo]

Alfa racing USA is in new York? What website please.

[@ESBKLife]

Alpha racing has no affiliate locations. The guy in NY is George and he changed the name of his company. I don’t remember what it is off hand. But there are a number of vendors that sell Alpha parts, superbikeunlimited.com, hustle hard racing, Hsbk racing are a few.

[@rocket25071]

Now I have to ask, why not need/use the PC5?

[@ESBKLife]

In theory with a proper ecu flash and map you shouldn't need a piggyback unit like a pc5. However, I recently found out that the RCK2 software has limitations on the fuel and ignition table input values. So the pc5 is going back on to fine tune the mapping.

[@bulltrades365]

Hey bro , how do I get in contact with alpha racing in the states I’m in New York, had a crash and I have a day coming up very soon , thanks Derrick

[@ESBKLife]

Hey Brian Alpha Racing Germany doesn’t have a location in NY. You’re talking about George Villar that owned Alpha Perfomance aka (alphasbk.com). Long story short, George was never affiliated with Alpha Racing Germany and and alphasbk.com is no more. George now operates as motorrad-1.com. But do business with him at your own risk. The guy has a terrible reputation.

[@rogerwilliams9242]

@@ESBKLife I didn't have a good experience with Mr. Villar so I now only deal with Hustle Hard Racing for my Alpha needs

Do all brake lines have same inner diameter? I've seen some triumphs use 2 lines to each caliper. Will this improve braking performance?

[@ESBKLife]

I don't know about "all" but sport bike brake line are pretty standard. Although I've never seen a bike with 2 lines running to each caliper? Not sure what triumph was trying to accomplish there?

[@kevinpinheiro2485]

@@ESBKLife I guess it was a mod done by that rider. I have a KTM RC 390 and put a brembo RCS 19. I noticed that the brake lever position kinda changes a bit. Like after the brakes heat up...the lever moves a bit away. Is that normal?

[@ESBKLife]

@@kevinpinheiro2485 completely normal with regular rubber/oem lines. Get some SS lines and some quality brake fluid and that will go away for the most part. I use Motul 660 in my all of my bikes now.

[@kevinpinheiro2485]

@@ESBKLife both rear and front are ss from factory. I replaced the front with hel brake lines. Using liquimoly dot 5.1. also I haven't bypassed the abs unit. Is that y I'm facing the brake problem? Like after it cools down the lever comes to normal position

[@ESBKLife]

@@kevinpinheiro2485 no I don't think its abs related. Sounds more like moisture or air in the lines. But then again, if you're an aggressive rider or track the bike, this could be normal. I have an adjuster on my track bike. I get a little fade towards the end of the day where I need to adjust them a bit. But I've never experienced this on any of my street bikes. I take that back, I did have an 05 gixxer 750 that had horrible brake fade lol
