Engine Light
A month ago after a days ride, my engine lightcame back on after starting up the engine, then went out. Dealership checked the code ( P1356 ) = rear cylinder "hickup", nothing to worry about. Just rode 330+miles Sunday & it's back. Anyone run into this! Oil, battery, fuel & temp OK runs fine. Love to ride, but not much on wrenching.

Check out these threads and do a search for rear cylinder misfiring. Hope this helps.

RE: Engine Light
Not that I have anything to add to help with your problem but you need to let people know what kind of bike? Mileage? EFT? Carb? Heck you could be talking about a Honda.

RE: Engine Light
Well I may have been too fast to accept the dealership's "guess" about the engine light. Went on a 200-mile trip & it started coming in while running down the road. Nowhere near the rev-limiter (for sure). Voltage-Oil pressure-Oil level-temp-fuel all OK, and running fine. Just the annoying light coming in for 10-90 seconds every few minutes. Finally stop after 40-miles, then acted up again a few times, after a pit stop. It's in the dealership again, hopefully for a more in-depth examination. Hate to blow-off the engine light, as it could mean something another time.

RE: Engine Light
Dealership replaced both spark plugs & rear plug wire. Seems to have resolved the engine light issue for now. Went on a 240-mile trip Sunday without any problem!
