I've only turned it off twice when I found I was going to dead-end on narrow gravel lanes and had to do an about-face. (I suppose I could have tried it with the ABS on - but what's the fun in that....)
If you haven't tried them, you'll find that off-road modes on various bikes (including some of my favorite KTMs) will shut off rear ABS while maintaining front ABS.
