my (as im told ) engine management light has come on(orange light on dash). i origonally thought it was my oil light (youll have to excuse me as im a girl).

it will flash at me when just running or sometimes in first gear. but when im going it just stayson.

i asked my partner to have a look he said im still fine to ride it.

can any one help me know what it could be

bare in mind that the the little miles clock (not the one that tells you how many miles you have done) has fallen back. could it be this??

the bike has only done 3549 miles.

The number of flashes indicates the fault code, you'll need someone with a Haynes manual at least to let you know what it's whining about.

It should flash in a sequence when you turn the ignition on, I believe with the side-stand down.

Unfortunately, I can't find a list of the fault codes sequences, but Section 4 of the Haynes manual apparently lists them.

Sorry, that's not much help, but I agree with the advice to just ride it until it actually exhibits a problem. For all we know, that could be an "Error in error code reporting system" code.

Yeah, put it on the centre stand, put the key in and turn to on, no mead to turn engine on. Flick the side stand down and count the flashes. Wink

You'll get short flashes (0.5 seconds) and long flashes (1.3 seconds). You will need to count them to work out the fault.

fault code 29 is the idle air control valve (iacv)

should possibly be experiencing hard starting, and a crappy idle Thumbs Up
