    Any help or information would be really appreciated. I don't believe the ABS unit has suddenly failed.
    I assume you know that on a Spyder, the ABS unit isn’t just an ABS unit. It is the Vehicle Control Module. One of the black box computers in the system. Occasionally they do go belly up suddenly. Besides battery and battery connections, check fuses, and wheel speed sensors. Both sensor gap and sensor wire harness for damage. The brakes have been split for 15k with no issues? Probably not that.

    And while you have it all apart, change the vacuum hoses while you’re in there. Two to the MAP sensor and one to the fuel pressure regulator.
