ST2 Systems Engine braking modulator and self cancelling turn signal units, Has anyone here tried them on a C14 yet?

Since he hasn’t seen this, I’ll say he seems to like the ST-2 system and also the deceleration flasher. When I talk with him I’ll try to remember to tell him you’re looking for some inp.
 
Hi I have the turn signal and the braking modulator. The signal canceling system one of if not the best aftermarket system on my bike. Works great. Highly recommend this. As far as I know each time I come off throttle the brake modulator starts blinking lol. I recommend them both. Both pretty simple installation.

Thank you for the information
 
Rode behind a guy at the Cumberland rally that had these / something similar.
Very effective
 
I just ordered mine.
I went to the ST2 web site, logged in, but didn't order right away,
Then, got a couple emails asking how " how can we help???"

Im on a ride, didn't respond.......
THEN I got an email saying " we're offering you a %30 discount"
I ordered it on the spot.


Looking forward to installing / testing it out.

Best
Bob
 
To cut or not to cut I have had a set sitting on the desk for two weeks. Will someone tell me the gods will forgive me for cutting in to the sacred Ma-kaw wiring loom. :unsure::cautious:
 
I installed the self canceling signals a few years back. Been working flawlessly. I made a video that shows how I installed mine. You don’t have to cut into the main harness. Instead, splice into the short sub harness that runs up to the bar switch.

Thanks Keith that's the push I needed. (y)
 
Finally got my brake module installed. I ended up zip tying the module under the rear brake reservoir under the seat. I'm concerned the zip ties won't last with vibration against the edges of the frame, but it's easy to check on - just lift the seat.

How did you tie that into the front where they want you to cut the wiring from the handle bar controls to the signals? Seems like a long run from the rear where you have it to the controls coming off the brake handles

Had not seen your post . When I just checked in I moved back up .....this looks better than what I had been directed to do when i called support >THANK YOU

I only have the brake module installed, not the turn signals.
 
What does the "Engine" braking Modulator do?

Ride safe, Ted

Update; Did some research.
The ST2 Brake Module flashes your brake light when engine braking or down-shifting to warn drivers behind you and drastically reduce the chance of being rear-ended.

What's the purpose of the foam in the switch housing? Is it necessary for proper operation?

Old post, but I noticed there's an unanswered question. So, yes, the foam in the switch housing is necessary. It prevents the turn signal switch from 'clicking' into place when you push left or right to keep the signal circuit activated. This allows the ST2 to take over control of the circuit, including the choice of when to cancel. Once you activate the signal, you can override the ST2 by pushing the switch in the same direction of the turn... left to signal, left again to override the behavior of the ST2 and cancel manually.

All of the foam pads provided with the ST2 are too thick to work properly on the C14 switch assembly. So, grab an X-ACTO blade and slice down the larger pads to be slightly thinner than the supplied 'thin' pads and Bob's your uncle. You would think the foam pads would eventually compress and stop doing their job. But, I'm now five years and 40K miles beyond my installation and the ST2 continues to work flawlessly.

One final note. It looks like there's been some redesign of the ST2 since I originally purchased mine. The sensing module looks to be quite a bit smaller than the original. I'm not sure if there are other differences related to what I mention above, so YMMV.
 
I don't have this bike or this module, but I have installed several aftermarket lighting control units on other bikes (such as the Skene front and rear modules). My approach for the electrical tie-ins is to get a set of factory connectors that match the nearest harness connector, and then make a new jumper harness that plugs between those two. That allows a plug-and-play install that doesn't require cutting or splicing the stock harnesses, and can easily be removed later.

Here's an example from a Skene Photon Blaster Turn Signal front system I installed on my ZX600-C this winter. It goes between the main harness and the front lighting sub-harness. Some of the wires just get passed straight through, but the ones that the Skene takes over get routed from the input (main harness), into the Skene module, and then back out to the other connector that plugs into the sub-harness (which is mounted in th fairing and not visible here).
