Default Clicking or tapping sound

Hi there, I wonder if you can help me?
The other day I switched on my forthright but the start button was disabled.(wouldn't start). The oil light came and stayed on, plus, abs flashing. I changed filter and oil but I still have the same problem. Now I've noticed a clicking sound coming from behind the air filter. I can only get as far as putting my pin code in (which I hate) and the bike lights up - that's about it.
Anybody else have the same problem?
David
