Default P1608 code

My bike threw a code yesterday…it didn’t want to turn over and after a few times it finally started…I looked the code up and it’s is intermittent power loss…any idea why this would be happening?…I took it to the dealer but they haven’t got back to me and the wait is killing me!

A one-post-*****. No mention of what model of motorcycle neither...

But yeah, I had an issue with my clock always resetting on cold restarts. The ground bolts to frame were very loose on mine! My bike is a softail--no idea what the OP is.. -_-
