You either disconnected or bent the sensor. Easy fix, just go to every sensor and "fiddle" with it till find the problem.

+1 Also check to see if you damaged or discconected the abs wire.

You did something to the wheel speed sensors. That's the only thing that would affect the ABS that you went near while installing springs.

I did the same thing. Mine came on after I did my rear springs after I did a test drive hitting a dump in the road. It when off for a while a couple rides ago then it came back on, so I think I have gotten a loose wire or connection on one side. I just haven't gotten to look under to find out what I did.
