Default tip sensor.

I've had my Fat Bob for about 3 months and I'm loving it. It's a 2015 1690 in Vivid Black. I do have a bit of a problem though.

I was traveling along the motorway today in the out side lane. I was overtaking a string of cars so I was up to about 75/80 MPH. Then the bike died. I can safely say this wasn't a pleasant experience. Outside lane, slowing rapidly with the hazards on. Trying to get over to the hard shoulder with all the cars on the inside lane flying on with total disregard for the fact that I had my hazard warning lights on. I eventually got over to the hard shoulder Having just about enough momentum. Got the bike down into neutral and hit the start button. Nothing! There was a fault message showing( t ip ). I turned the bike off and on again and it cleared itself and started.

The bike has only 2200 miles on it. I'm wondering has anyone out there experienced this?

If that happened to me, I would have been on the phone with the dealer telling them to pick up the bike on the side of the road.
