Take it back to the dealer and have them fix it.

You are being educated; however, you are not learning.

Unless you are a troll and not listening to the suggestions that are being presented.

Not sure which dealership you bought the bike from, you being in Brooklyn, but listen to what you are being told. New to you bike should not have left the dealership with a warning light on, you should have gotten off the bike and asked them to deal with it. But you are still OK, call you salesman, explain the bike needs to come bike due to codes. Let them deal with it, and it should not cost you any $$$$$$. Good luck.

Well, Im in Brooklyn and bought it from NJ.
It's just financial issue for me, but now that you say it shouldn't cost anything, I will bug them...

It's just I bought it already, didn't finance... So was thinking there is not even point in bothering them, but will do

Getting it back to them is best. Just like mentioned in other posts
Make sure they know about the codes and do something about them.

Good Luck WP

I'm from Eastern Europe, we always buy second hand so something not working properly when you purchase vehicle is normal over there 😆

I freaking love this bike already.
Dealerships told me $1000+ for mini apes, so was kinda scared to even mention to them servicing or something thinkin they'll overcharge the **** out of me
😆 Thank you for advices

Even if you bought it “as is” I’d take it back to the dealer. Don’t call them, it’s too easy to blow smoke up your skirt over the phone.
