Probably not a dirty sensor, since it is magnetic. But, it does sound like a faulty ABS sensor, or sensor wiring. Also, check that it isn't loose.

 

 

+1.

 

On an 11 year old bike I would at least open and remake every connector. The false speed reading suggests the ECU thinks the sensor is reading pulses from the wheel indentations (which is what happens when the wheel rotates) but actually it could be the sensor connectors making/breaking rapidly, or even picking up some electrical noise from somewhere.

I had exactly the same problem as described in the original post, with the added bonus of the rear brake pulsing /abs activating even at very low speed with no slipping. I decided to bite the bullet and get a new rear sensor and second hand sensor housing,as the sensor was completely seized due to corrosion.the new sensor has completely cured the problem.
It is an annoying expense,but worth it just for peace of mind.

Just highjacking this one. How about no ABS warning light on but the rear locking up regularly. Not overly bothered but is simply wrong. Needs attention.
Bike is 06
