Honestly have no idea, I don't have one. Out of curiosity though, what exactly are you doing where you want to turn off ABS?

isnt it obvious? :burnout
You need to yell the magic words at it... 'Turn off, Sesame!'

using the search function on this site is an easier task.

seeing as you cant accomplish that, I don't see ABS being "turned off" on your bike :devious

Of course you can not... You cant do it in car either... Why would want to do it anyway

Yeah can definitely turn that off in a car... my dad did it with TCS and ABS in his 05 Mustang all the time.

You can only turn off traction control and auto-hold

Because you know what he did to his half street, half drag car right? With his mustang forum buddies?

If I remove the fuse for ABS module the ABS will be disable (a warning will pop up on the car) but that's not a stock option like the button to turn off the traction control

Well I should have said the car wasn't quite stock. He and his buddies crafted a button switch along with other modifications so they could drag one day and slide around the next. It's definitely possible is what I'm saying. It wouldn't take much effort
You got a brand new bike and it didn't even come with an owners manual!? The nerve!!!
run your lines straight from your master cylinders to your calipers
I have the same bike, you can't turn it off unless you pull the fuse. Just like on a car, there is no easy way to turn if off.

If you really want something that you can quickly turn the ABS on/off, instead of pulling the fuse, you can remove the fuse completely and wire up a fused switch and mount the switch somewhere on your control panel.
There's no magic button or anything to turn the ABS off. Bikes like the BMW S1000RR has an option where you can turn the ABS off, not the 13-15 ZX-6R.

Only way I would think of is by pulling the fuse. The braking system will act as if it didn't have ABS as a fail safe.

Pull the fuse, wire a switch to the fuse or get the Non-ABS model. Your only options here.
thanks.. I was just looking for a option my old 2015 675 had the option but I really dont need it just learning the bike.. thanks everyone
I think stoppies are the reason I'd want to disable abs

Something something don't revive old threads

Btw if anyone in the southern california area accidentally bought a model with abs I'd be down to trade. That way you can stoppie to your heart's content right up until you flip it
