Default Engine light
I'm a newbie who needs help. My 2007 1200 Sporty engine light comes on for about 9 or 10 seconds after the bike is started. Just recently started doing this. It goes off, but I don't think it should do this. It recently just hit 25000 miles and I'm not sure if it's some impregnated code or it's something else that could be going on. Any help would be appreciated. Semper Fi, Ron

Would best to read the DTC's (error codes) to find out what is triggering the light.

Here is a link on how to do it, and what each means-
