I'm pretty sure that if they have bypassed the system (hoses from brake-cylinder to caliper) they could have continued.

I'd have ridden on, there is no ABS failure that results in loss of brakes, that isn't just a normal brake failure (like a leak). I could have fixed that bike in ten minutes with the BMW diagnostics and the right parts. Given the welding and ABS light, I suspect more was fried than the ABS ECU and would bet money they didn't want to broadcast the fact that a simple bodged repair effectively scrapped the bike. The other electrics are IMHO a reason to use something no later than an R1100.
