HESD replacement

I have recently replaced the HESD with a manual damper.  While  I am greatly enjoying having the versatility of a manual damper, it has caused the engine light to come on.  Does anyone know or have a fix to bypass the open ended plug that plugged into the HESD?

Excuse my silly question, but what was wrong with the HESD in the first place?

    the HESD doesnt correct as fast as it needs to once you start getting faster and faster.

what you have to do is remove the solenoid that the wiring harness is plugged into and just leave the solenoid plugged in. tape it off inside the fairings.
there is a write up on how to do it on 1000rr.net
search for GPR installation,

what speed are you talking? high speeds or even high revs at low speeds that it can't catch up? To know and to be aware of
 
Thanks baxsom !

I've noticed it on high speeds or quick maneuvering. I have a manual one on my 954 and it's much more predictable if you go from say a left to a right turn and back again. Or something of that nature. It seems to lag and at other times overcorrect. Not sure how to explain it. Ride a properly setup bike w/a manual one and then check out the HESD's style.

    for street riding you will probably never really "need" to replace the HESD. when i say get faster i mean on the track. i am talking 100+mph hairpins off a 1/4 mile straight going into a tight chicane type riding. you need a damper that reacts very quickly

It is noticeable on the street too. I've taken my 1000 to the track once and it was hugely noticeable. But aggressive riding on the street makes it very obvious too. Not in town riding, I mean back winding empty roads. You'd be a fool riding like that in a city or something in traffic.

Thanks guys for the info.. i might of actually experienced it trying to correct  itself when going around a "roundabout" traffic island turning right and then qickly left and felt like the wheel was loose so i slowed down, now i know it must of been the damper lol
I know what you guys are talking about but for street use it's gotta be good for something and better than nothing. like the R1 than don't have it. lol

my hyperpro rsc kit came with some electrical stuff that makes the computer think the stock hesd is still hooked up. you could try to contact hyperpro for the info
