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.

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
