[QUOTE="S76, post: 296652, member: 1349"] I may be off base here, (happened once before), but these bikes do have a tendency to "flood" if you start them and then shut them off before the fast idle goes away. Mine has done that and when they do start you will hear a ticking (actually more like a knocking noise) for several minutes. My question would be, did the noise go away after it warmed up? If so you probably will not have that happen again under normal circumstances. Just remember, if you start the bike, let it run until warm enough for the fast idle to go away before you shut it down. Start it again and it will probably be fine. As far a the ABS goes. That sounds like it is broken. The dealer probably didn't secure a speed sensor on the wheel hub during assy. as previously mentioned. [/QUOTE]
