Interesting. I thought that problem went away since the old permanent magnet generators.

Glad to see am not the only idiot to leave the bike idling... and leave home. Was a slight emergency, but that is no excuse!I see that now. I guess some lose all their oil and shutdown. Why did you need to charge your battery if it was still running? Or did the heat cause it to discharge?
Anyways I learnt these things shutdown with a loss of oil pressure. My K bike certainly shut down and started right back up after adding fresh oil. It should have been toast with no oil and the dealer told me of other examples of complete oil loss from forgotten idling R bikes. One where the valve cover was warped even.
According to them they have seen bikes that were left idling more than once.
So, how hot did your LED get? I'd guess that being non-rolling, and in a closed garage (I hope), would be the "worst case" scenario. Also wondering if the heat appeared to reduce the light output.
