    Cam position sensor may be going south on you?

    I gleaned the below from previous postings on this board:

    1. Did you see the engine check light blinking after it shut down? It may help you by giving you the code for what was wrong.

    You should be able to force the bike to give up the trouble code if it registered one in the ECM. With the side stand down, the kill switch on, and in neutral, try turning it over for 10 seconds to see if the FI light will flash its code. If so, report back with the code.

    Long = 10
    shorts = 1

    Example, 2 longs and 3 shorts = 23. It will repeat itself. If there are more the 1 code, be sure to know which code was indicated first.

    Engine light 'was not' blinking. Been 4 days - bike still running excellent.
