Considering ABS delete on Panigale R track only build

I’ve done some deep dives into forum posts here and elsewhere, but I wanted to hear from someone who has actually completed an ABS delete on a Panigale R/1299-generation bike using direct lines and plugs on the ABS pump.

Is anyone out there who has done this?
• Did you experience any negative effects?
• Does traction control and other electronic systems still function as expected?
• Any suggestions or potential pitfalls I should be aware of?
• Would you do it again? Why or why not?

Thanks!

I have a V4 and did the ABS delete.

I prefer the feel of the non abs bike at the limit vs a bike with abs. I can’t remove the entirety of the pump assembly so I just changed the lines and blocked off the ports on the pump.
I’m happy with the feel of the brakes and the less clutter on the bike.
