While driving the motorcycle I lose the ability to pull in the front brake for a few seconds. When I pulled in the clutch to slow down the ABS and Traction Control error lights went off. At this moment I was able to pull the front brake again. I immediately took the bike in for service. The technician said the speed sensor was backing out of the bike and applied loctite. First, the speed sensor did not have loctite so it could come loose. Second, a failure of ABS should NEVER affect the ability to apply the brake. I was very lucky I was able to get out of traffic and be able to slow down. It could have been a serious injury
