I'll check it at first service, read the book last night and it will come on according to engine temp, maybe sensor needs air flow of bike moving to cool it down? First time it happened was wheni picked bike up and pulled away from Devils on my way home. Didnt like to look a real tw'at and stop and get book out of me bag, luckily it went off as i pulled away :)

My engine management light came on and stayed on. Let the bike cool down fired up OK, light off, soon as it gets hot, 1 cylinder and lights comes on..

It was the rear cylinder on mine, pretty simple to check one exhaust pipe won't be pushing any exhaust fumes out

Real McCoy 04-Apr-2005 16:56

looks like it was the front pot, new coill + plug thankyou :P

Digi dum dum dum - another one bites the dust.:lol:

How many more running intermittently on one pot????

Like JPM says, check exhaust fumes, or check exhaust pipe temperatures (soon after starting from cold), or smell exhaust fumes (not recommended for too long).

Rule of thumb is that if it says 999 on any of your panels, then likelihood is it is running on one pot.

JPM - to be truthful - you didn't actually do a track day on one pot did you? Just short of one lap as I recall.

McCoy - what year bike is it? mines an 03 and I've had it back into dealer twice previously with this fault. Each time it ran great after but this time it's do or die I think.

JPM 04-Apr-2005 17:29

I nearly completed one lap!! :mad::P

Glad that's got yours fixed, I'm still waiting to hear if that's the fix for mine, need to pick it up this week, or know by the 7th so I can cancel another track day and hopefully get a cover note/refund

Real McCoy 04-Apr-2005 17:42

yep mines an 03 too :sniff:

Unlucky McCoy.

It's just not funny anymore.

Has anyone had an 05/04 with similar problems?

Is there a central register for all these probs at DUK, and if so, what's happening?
