Love to hear the fuel pump spooling up in the morning.

Darn NRS the fuel pump in the 5 gallon tank under the seat is so deep down that I can't hear it. Thus I wait for the light to go off.

Damn thing runs great and pulls hard 3rd through 5th , just that pesky little engine light keeps coming on ! lol

Your post is is something different from what FP is saying. His is referring to the timed amount the light stays on (it's just to show you the light bulb is good and nothing else) However you bike is telling you that you have some kind of malfunction. You problem is stored in memory and you can read it and fix that problem.
