Good evening all
I went out to have a spirited ride today and everything was fine for the 1st 20 odd miles. I decided to fill up at a garage I don't normally use and carried on for a few more miles. The bike felt different like it was struggling and seems not to be firing too well, it also lacked torque and was a bit hesitant over 8k.
The next thing I know the engine message comes up with ' engine! Have it checked by a specialist workshop.
I limped home and ran it a few times from cold, it seems lumpier than usual on the start. Everytime I started it, it stated checks were ok then when it idled it threw the message up again.
I only have an akrapovic stubby slip on, so it isn't as if it is a full system, and the can has been on for months without any problems.
Anybody else had this issue, or can point me in the direction of a fix. I did speak to my dealership but they said it sounds ,I've I have a full system on!!! I said I hadn't and they were saying that if I had done anything it would invalidate warranty. It is now booked in to them next week, so should I have to out the stock can on to be safe?
Will post some pictures and videos if I can, thanks in advance. Oh, and I checked with the garage I had put the right fuel in, and I had!
