GEN 1 ABS HELP

[CurtisLee]

so I’ve taken my wheels into a garage and had new tyres fitted, but when fitting he asked which side my front ABS sensor is on, I’ve told him the wrong side…so the tyres on backwards. My question is can I just swap the abs ring onto the other side and spin the wheel or am I paying to have the tyre flipped.

If it's like the Gen3, then I would say no.
The tyre fitter should of seen the direction of the old tyre so maybe he should do it FOC?

Agreed - the tyre fitter should fix their mistake.

abs sensor is only one side

Sooo this is the problem, I’ve bought the bike and they’ve fitted the wheel the wrong way round with the abs ring on the wrong side so that’s got everything upside down when he’s replaced the tyre.

Flip the tyre, it will be a tenner at most. You can't flip the wheel.

The wheel will fit but abs tc wont work. Get it flipped.... When i raced my gen 1, it started raining just before a race so arushed wheel change. On the warm up lap I had all the dash lights on (WTF!) Realised what I'd done, had to do the wet race with no abs tc etc, scary stuff lol !
