My motorcycle developed a problem: while riding at a steady speed without any input (braking, steering, or accelerating/decelerating) ABS and TC lights come in and dash starts flashing message 'ABS failure'. The main issue: the above-mentioned problem also causes turn signals to malfunction - they would self-cancel after few flashes (13-17) which compromises my safety as it can confuse cars behind me. I have notified KTM about the problem (case CS0462825) but they were unhelpful and simply close the case.
