| Actually, should be pretty easy (I had to do this on my 94 ST because sensors are no longer available and I was having ABS issues/ warming lights, etc.)- I pulled the fuses for ABS in the fuse block and no more ABS (just regular brakes on that bike)- the only issue you may have is a warning light on the instrument panel, but if you dismantle the area to get behind it, you could just pull the bulb. I would truthfully only do this if I was having ABS issues and either could not troubleshoot it properly or as I indicated, the parts are no longer available. The left brake handle should still activate both brakes and right handle the front as expected.
I would not want to take off the ABS parts as then you’re potentially messing with the unknown (my way, you’re just electrically disabling ABS) |

| If you do, you'll probably need to list it as a mod on your insurance. |
