Whilst I was away at the weekend, just about to pop over the tops from Holmfirth to Buxton, my dash indicated a VDS! warning and all the rider aids like ABS and traction control were disabled.
Now, riding a new 160bhp motorbike without all those things did make me just a tiny bit nervous, I must admit.
I did find out what was going on, though - under the seat there was a blue fuse on the left hand side of the s1000xr bike that looked like it was working it way out. Re-seating this resolved all the issues.
Might happen to others so hopefully this is useful.
