I don't know the answer to your question but here's a question that might lead you to a different solution. If the ABS doesn't see one of the wheel sensors it flags the ABS light but does it also disable the ABS system? If it does you could put a switch inline with one of the sensors. As a test you could pull the rear ABS sensor out of its holder, go for a quick ride and see if you can lock the rear wheel (since I can't say: "don't try this at home", I'll go with: "be careful if you try it").

Here's how someone did it the technical way on a (US) Vstrom:
