In preparation for the bad news that my workshop might give me next week when replacing the front brake pump (namely, that I might need a new ABS module) I've been looking around and the module seems to cost over 1200USD.
Off to eBay, then. There seems to be a lot of 2006-2011 ZZR1400 (ZX-14 in the US) ABS modules, but just a few C14/1400GTR modules. The ones for the ZX-14 cost less than 100USD delivered, but the ones for the GTR cost 3 times as much. Part numbers are:
ZZR1400/ZX14: 16082-0008, which replaced the 16082-0031
C14/1400GTR: 16082-0023
Does somebody know if they are interchangeable?
I went this route to repair my 2008 concours. There is a catch. The electronics for the ZZR1400 or ZX14r are not compatible. They trip to abs light  when you try to use it. Since the actual pump failure is mechanical, swap the hydraulic unit out but remove the ecu that is attached to the integrated unit with your original bikes electronic module. Problem affordably resolved. My abs works again and I had a parts bit of only $120. Because used units for the concours are much harder and more expensive to come by.
Crashed before, will crash again. Hopefully in a soft spot at a trackday.

Isn't that because of what's discussed here; that you initially fitted a 'gen 2' ZZR unit to a gen 1 ZG?

Actually the pump I used was not for the TC equipped ZZR/ZX-14R. This one has only 4 hydraulic lines, not 5. Pump is an exact mechanical match. Electronic module was the difference. Swapping that with my good original finished the job.
