Battery Fail
Had similar problems with my bike failing to start after riding it for 30 minutes.
Recovery engineer said it was a faulty cell on the battery, but turned out to be an issue with fluids draining back into the engine too slowly.
It's happened 4 times now a BMW seem a bit confused as to why its happening.
As stated above, this might be a sign of failing battery.
Two days after I started getting the warning, my F850GS wouldn't turn over the starter. The low voltage warning came way too late, like after I had cycled it on and off several times trying to restart it.
I actually haven't replaced the battery yet, but it's about four years old so probably due.
