Rob thanks for putting this info all together. Just like last year, I hope to make it over Saturday afternoon for a couple hours. This is Jake’s senior year and last state competition. No way I’ll miss that. Hopefully next year all 3 of us will be able to make it.

I'm going to do everything I can to make it happen, but I'm having some bike issues.

Bike is running ok, but I'm getting all kinds of codes. Thought I had it sorted out, but it keeps happening. As well, went on a ride on Saturday, and something is up with the starter. There was a clickety noise, which I've never heard when starting before. Happened twice and something is not right when I'm starting it now. I feel like I have a limited number of times it'll work for me before it's done.

Fellas at the dealership are great and know i'm under the gun, no promises, but they said if I get it in right away, they'll get it looked at as soon as they can.

I've made the last two years and would be disappointed if my bike is down for this one. I'm working the problem, but this is gonna be tight.

Hopefully they get it figured out for you.

How old is your battery???
You know these bikes with a AGM battery and some power in the audio system will degrade a battery a little faster than normal. Then the waterfall effect happens after the battery gets weak. The stator has to work harder and the voltage regulator gets hotter than normal trying to make up the lower voltage the battery doesnt have to power the system.

Then with low voltage the canbus system will start going crazy because of the wrong/low voltages.


What were the codes the ecm/bcm were showing??

you're not the only one that mentioned the battery, i'm hoping that is all it is....didn't record the codes, only because I assumed they were arbitrary....if it's a battery, I'll probably upgrade

i'm optimistic, this is just a test of resolve
