ODO turns off and won't start
I got an XL1200X which has been sitting in the garage for quite some time. When I turn the key to full position, the ODO turns off and the alarm goes off.
Can't even switch on the ignition, fuel pump, everything is cut off.
Is the battery dead? Lights are on though. Bike is practically 'new' with less than 6K kilometres. Or is the keyfob's battery dead?
Update: Well I check the keyfob's battery and it's currently at 2.8V down from 3V. So I assume its not the keyfob.

Hopefully the problem is just the battery. Going to get my hands on a battery charger this Monday.

i had a similar problem this week.
when i turned the key to ignition, everything died.
when i pulled some of the fuses, the dummy lights and clock came back on.
narrowed it down to the lights fuse.
when i pulled the fuse out, the bike ran fine.
narrowed that problem down to a slight corrosion on one of the plugs in the rear lighting.
cleaned it up, put the fuse back in and now my bike is running fine
