Default Check engine light

Check engine light is coming on, dealer got this code on readout PO154
Which is supposed to signal rear O2 sensor issue. It an 06 street bob bought it 6 weeks ago with 12 k miles. Bike runs great. Dealer reset to clear on, but engine light came on hole riding back home?
Any thoughts..
Thanks

Should still have some warranty, have the dealer replace the sensor

I hope the dealer didn't just reset the codes and send you on your way...
If they did...they surely shouldn't have charged you anything.
OP's bike is an 06... 7 yrs old ,I doubt he has any warranty left.
I would reset the codes...check the connections..if it throws the code again..change the O2 sensor. And find a different Dealer

Thats what warranties are for! Take it back and get them to fix it.

My thoughts also. Code says O2 sensor so check the connections first then replace the sensor.if needed.
Just clearing the codes doesn't make the problem go away.
Hope is just a simple fix which is what it sounds like.
