Thanks all, the ECU seems ok, I pulled the panel and checked it out. Not sure what the issues is. I guess I'll have to haul it in to have them check the code. It runs fine, but the light are telling me otherwise. But man...there are thousands of them....

Hey fella, ****IN QUICK!!! The best thing to do is torch those ****ers. Get a flammable aerosol can (for the .com site users aerosol is not what you fart out of, it's a spray can) start spraying, light the mist with a lighter then keep nozzle depressed. Spray everywhere the ants have been thoroughly with the bright light being emitted from the can.

Once complete, allow the bike to rest and cool. Try starting the bike. If it starts you'll be fine. If not call your insurance company and tell them you tried fixing it but it's definitely broke! They'll buy you a new one and problem gone.

Oh welcome to the site.

I read some where that at one time, certain vehicles had electrical tape, that had a sugar based adhesive, that the ants, rats, squirrels, etc. loved to chew on.

Now that to me sounds like an autoelec helped chose the tape! Guaranteed income for years.
