And it will default to old fashioned normal braking until the issue is fixed.
There should be a "code" set, and the dealer should be able to retrieve that code and fix the issue. I'd try a different dealer if they can't give you any answers.

Yep if it doesn't go out when you start rolling you have a problem...We find a lot of faults at the connector for the front brake sensor...Follow the wire from the sensor at the front wheel up to where it connects to the main harness...Seems to be the most common problem with abs brakes in our part of the country.

The code it keeps throwing is the ABS motor or something like that. The dealer has checked all the wireing and put die electric grease on all connectors. They replace the ABS manifold block under the side cover. When I get it back, it works for a day or two, then comes on again.
I use this dealer because they are close to my work and seem a lot sharper than the ones I bought the bike from. You know how that goes.
Thats also what I thought, if its on, the ABS is not working.

I will ask them about the sensor the next time I take it in. The brakes have been bled by two different dealers with the same results.

Your bike is a 2010, so it's still under factory warranty correct?
