I have a 1996 K1100rs SE. I just took it out yesterday after a lengthy period of the bike sitting in the garage. Oil and coolant fine. I rode 15 minutes. When I got home and turned the key off and removed it, I noticed that the ABS light stayed on, although somewhat faint. There was also a loud buzzing/whirring sound coming from under the seat. I have no idea what that noise is from, nor do I know why the light remained on. The sound stopped when I moved the mototronic unit.
Later that day, I rode another 20 min. Bike actually lost power while I riding. I coasted to a stop and got to the side of the road. Loud sound again. 5 min later, I tried to start back up and was successful. I rode straight home (5 min) and turned off the key. Same thing as before - light stayed on, loud sound under seat. This time the sound didn't stop. I finally disconnected the battery, and that got it to stop.
Anyone with ideas on what the heck is going on, I am in your debt.
