Help needed - 3.0 km added at start of ride

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Whenever I turn the bike on, during the first 100 meters of my rider, the odometer is adding 3km. This happens even if I turn it on, see the 3km added, drive for several KMs (everything is working fine), then turn it off, and turn back on - again, 3 km will be added in the first 100 meters. I had the bike checked and they couldn't find any issue. I was told I would have to replace the dashboard

	It’s been reported by quite a few owners. The bike will add 0.1km per revolution of the wheel for a short period when first moved with the ignition on even if the engine isn’t running ( such as moving on your drive) . To my knowledge no one has a fix and it’s likely a firmware bug in the dash. It’s possible that they have updated the dash and a new one might fix it but none of the reports on the problem I saw have resorted to that due to cost. It might be worth asking the dealer to check your dash firmware is up to date if they haven’t already.

	Thank you for the answer! The dealer has checked the firmware (it is up to date) and their only answer was that I need to replace the dashboard, which seemed like a huge expense. One thing that I have noticed is that the problem gets worse over time. When it started I noticed 3.0 KM added as I turn the engine on. Now it's already up to 3.8. Thanks again for the help. I wish there was some answer, but at least I know that the dealer is not incompetent or making things up
