[QUOTE="Harald, post: 296920, member: 8054"] Thanks for all the tips. I didn't see anything obviously wrong with the abs wiring. I had to stop by the dealer anyway, so I had them look at it. They were nice enough to squeeze me in right away. They had it fixed in about 30 minutes. Cause of the problem? The rear brake light was sticking on - or so they say. Whatever they did, I put another 70 miles on the bike after that and no more problem. It's good to hear that the dreaded tick is not associated with gen II bikes. I've ridden my whole life, but never a bike with fuel injection so I think the injector sounds may be what I'm hearing. The engine oil is full and I haven't done any quick starts/shutdowns, so maybe it's normal or maybe my engine will grenade next week. I just know that my other bike (CBR1100XX) I've had for the last 34,000 miles doesn't make this sound, but it has carburators. I'm sure I'll be part of this FJR family for many years to come, so I'll let you know how the engine does. [/QUOTE]
