Smart brake module from Smart Turn System

I thought I would do a short write up on this. Very happy with it.

A few weeks ago I installed the Smart Brake Module onto my 05 RSTD.  It ships from Slovenia so be patient. Probably took 3 weeks to get to me in Canada.

It was an extremely simple install. It comes with the connectors and a guide indicating what wires to tap into. In this case the wires are under the seat and leading through a hole in the rear fender. You can easily access them.

The trick for most motorcycles is finding a level spot to secure the module. It is not large measuring approximately 1.5"x1"x.75".

Lucky for us, there is the ledge that our seats (at least for the RSTD, I'm not sure about the Venture) sit on.  I decided to velcro and tape the module to the underside of that ledge (see pic attached).  It needs to be level and facing forward so the magic in the box (accelerometer and motion detection sensors) can do its thing and sense when the bike is slowing due to engine braking or down-shifting.

It works exactly as advertised.  Definitely feel more safe with it installed.

Thanks

Roger
