It is a 1985 BMW K100RS. This is the first time this has ever happened since buying the bike some 15 years ago. It has about 65,000 miles on it.

I arrived to my job and turned the engine off by key–and the engine turn off switch–but it kept trying to keep the engine running; it was the sound you hear when you have started the engine but my mistake turned the key again and get that awful noise you get when the engine has already been running.

    For long you get it was running check the wire connections have been compromisedfrom the wire connections have been heated upsome may be loose also check all of the crimps on the start button to the terminals to run for long you get.
    The wire connections have not been compromisedfrom the terminals to the cranking circuit now that the starter motor runningthis is stuck or something has shorted across the starter run for long you probably couldnt hear it sounds to see if it to run for long you get it to stop check the start button to me like your starter solenoid is stuck.
