So which one looks like a bird beak?
Is this a trick?

Which is what happens when your battery is dying, and it does not have enough juice to run a system check, thus re-setting the clock to 1:00a.m.
You really need to check the battery with a volt meter to see how much it drops with just turning the key on, then again, when hitting the starter button.
Are you using a stock OEM battery (Yuasa) or a smaller aftermarket battery?
If your using a smaller, non-OEM battery, it may not have enough juice to do what the bike needs to do.
If its not the battery (which I doubt) then you could have a short in your wiring somewhere etc.
Start with testing the battery.
Thanks for posting the picture.
Glad you found it, and got it sorted out.
Also check the ignition wire connectors just in front of the main ones on the left side of the bike, as they have a habit of doing this, causing the bike to try and hot wire itself.

I’ll keep that in mind - any pictures of exactly where to look?
