On my 1190 I've only seen the general failure when I've had the bike in bits and switched on before reconnecting something like tank connectors, forks or shock, airbox sensors etc.

The bike obviously thinks something is broken or missing...have you done the obvious check of all fuses, made sure all connectors are plugged in properly?

 

Our 1090 did this on holiday, first time ignition off / on solved it, 2nd time it did not, but after a longer stop it went out and almost 6 months later has never returned.

Check everything works when light comes on, horn, indicators etc. as can be pretty much anything electrical causing it, but according to my dealer nothing to worry about with regard to using the bike.

 

Cheers mate sounds exactly like my issues will give it the once over

 

I've not had a General Fault warning but a couple of times it's flashed up MTC failure. Again, switching off and on seems to cure it and no faults were found on the ECU when it was plugged in at the dealers a couple of weeks later.

 

Had it once when poxy horn did not work. took horn of and gave it a whack and it worked and cleared on dash.

 

You'd think with all technology we've got they be able to make a horn that does more than just Farr!

 

As per last time it happend left bike a couple of days started it up no light so clearly no fault with auxilliarys...will put it down to querky KTM electrics !
