my bike did not want to turn off after the key was turned off. the brake light turns on when pressing both brakes, key off. and the lights are on, key off.
what could cause this?
I've been thinking my ecm is going bad..

Are you sure you didn't turn the key past "off" to "park"?????

I would say a stuck relay or bad ignition switch.

I agree on the ignition switch. Sounds like a bad connection or possible broken wire.

Has it rained recently? Have you washed your bike recently?

If the kill switch shut it off, that would seem to mean a bad ignition switch. If the kill switch won't shut it off either, I'd think a stuck relay. Relays are cheap & common to some late-model Fords.

You will need to dribble chicken blood over the headstock.
Do not use synthetic.
