Will Vortex Rearsets Work With an ABS 14R?
The Vortex rep said 'no' but I was sure I saw posts from ABS 14R owners who were using them (maybe I was wrong).
Can anyone confirm which brand of rearsets will work? Sato, perhaps?

I checked with Sato, no go, waiting for info from Vortex. Seems the problem is the solid brake line from the slave cylinder to the ABS pump. A flexible one would solve the problem.

Just received this from Vortex today. Quote "there should not be any complications setting these up on an ABS model."
I have ordered a set of Vortex RS441K rearsets, will post pictures when I receive them.

Please post how it works out- my parts dealer heard the opposite from the Vortex rep when he asked about compatibility with the ABS model (which is why I haven't ordered them).

Just finished installing a set of these, no problems at all in the standard position.
However if you want to go up & back, you will need a flexible brake hose installed between the ABS pump & the slave cylinder to replace part #43060B. Available from most brake line manufactures.
Very happy with the fit & finish of these!
Will post pictures when I get a moment of daylight to take some!
