Sounds like a dodgy coil.Which pot is missfiring?

Sounds exactly like mine, currently waiting for new coils under warranty

Is it an R perchance?

Had this on my Bip, front pot, coil & plug gets crappy, would get it sorted before it goes completely, it's no fun riding with one cylinder

my engine management light comes on when i start bike and wont go off till i pull away, also comes on if i slow down or stop at lights, is this normal?? its done it since i picked it up. Hope yours gets sorted Karl.

mines does that as well gizmo, someone told me that it was normal and that it was running diagnostics or sumthin, it only does it when im sitting at lights waiting to go, when i pull away it turns off.
