Can I fit these to a 2014 (abs) Roadster?
Tyres would be 130/70 & 240/40

not if they are 18 inch
your front is a 17 so it takes a 150/80/VR17 your back is a 240/50/VR16 if a better all round rear tire is the Bridgestone Exedra Max 240/55/16 its a little taller but corrects the speedo and does not mess with the ABS. On the front you should not go any lower then a 140/75/VR17 or it will mess with the ABS. The 130 works if you buy the right rim size but it will mess with the ABS.
 
I mean can I fit 18" wheels to the beast

are you talking about CF wheel . I have 18 " wheels you can fit 240/40 18 R and 130/70 18 F ,The rear will be the same diameter but the front will be 4.9% smaller and the bike will sit 16 mm lower on the front. or you can try at 140/7018 inch but I think you only comes in H speed rating and its 2.8% smaller diameter and the bike will sit or 9 mm lower.
I believe ponters has the sizes you mention and abs seems to be working okay

Yes, the CF wheels, my only concern is the effect on the ABS
