Yeah, mine has been doing this for almost two years.  I've spent about $450 on diagnosis and parts at the dealer.  His next suggestion was to replace the brain for about a zillion dollars.  I can live without it.

Subject: Weird ABS Behavior


Since my ABS was 'fixed' (front sensor replaced) and my tranny rebuilt in
September, I've had several 'hard' ABS faults.  It happens when first
starting to move the bike.  I'll hear a grinding noise at very low speed
(during the ABS self check, I imagine) and there will be the hard fault.  It
happened quite often on my trip down and back to SouFL over the holidays.
On the way down, I had several right in a row.  I gassed up and started out.
Got grinding and hard fault.  Parked and reset.  Started out again and got
another hard fault.  Very frustrating.

Anyone ever hear of this??
