O2 Sensor Codes
About 14 months and 6500 miles on my 2020 RG Limited. On my way to work yesterday the check engine light came on. Read the codes myself: P0051c and P0154h
I looked these up and it appears something is wrong with my rear O2 sensor from what I've read. The bike is still under warranty and I took it to the dealer on my way home yesterday to be serviced. The guy at the service desk rather curtly told me it may be April 17 before they even look at it.....kind of left me with the impression that I should feel so lucky that the dealer I bought the bike from was even willing to let me drop it off, but that's another story.
I'm new to the M8 motors and don't know much about them. Just wondering if this is a common problem or just bad luck for me?

Also, just to be clear, you probably dont have a problem with the sensor, the codes mean the sensor is sensing something. Sometimes there is a problem with the sensor and replacing the sensor fixes the problem, but not always.

You got an early warning about that dealership.
Telling you on a warranty claim they would not look at it until April 17th. Yes they changed their mind this time and got to it. They sent you a message they are not instead in taking care of warranty for you.
Move on find a better dealership.

Woah...woah...woah...a 10-day window to get bike serviced in the spring isn't bad at all. Last year it took me 1.5 months to get my Heritage in f/ service. Just be patient & they'll get 'er fixed.
OP; Any mods to consider, that could be causing the codes?

And in some fairness to the dealership, this week has been Arizona bike week here in the Phoenix area and I suspect that has a bit to do with the packed service area. Furthermore, I know they just like every other business it seems have struggled to keep fully staffed. In the end, they got to it and fixed it within 3 days time, so no complaints.
