Dissappearing Engine Light

Not sure if this is normal but after I start my bike the engine light comes on and stays on for about 5 seconds or so. I know it comes on when you flip the killswitch to run before you start the bike but I've never noticed it coming on after I've started the bike. I've tried pulling a code but come up with "none" or "no rsp". I dont notice any difference in performance. It just worries me that something might be wrong, and being mechanically retarded I thought I'd ask everyone on here. Thanks for any help.

Mine does the same thing. I also notice it sometimes when I'm about to turn it off after a long ride, it'll come on for about 5 seconds or so at idle right before I kill it. I haven't been too worried about it because there are no codes and it doesn't stay on long, but I've been curious myself.

So I think that the light doesnt have anything to do with the bike running. Getting ready to head home from work I turned the key to on flipped the killswitch to run the engine light came on as it always does and went out after a few seconds. Then it came back on after a few seconds and after about 5 seconds of being on it went out again. I started my bike and it didnt come on. So im still not sure why its coming on a second time.

Try resetting the codes to clear it
Speedometer Self Diagnostics:
Speedometer Self Diagnostics:
- Turn Ignition switch to OFF & Run/Stop switch is to Run.
- Push odometer reset button in & hold.
- Turn ignition switch to Ignition and release odometer reset button. Background lighting sould illuminate, speedometer needle should sweep its full range and indicator lamps (battery, security, low fuel, check engine and cruise) should illuminate. The word diag should then appear.
- Push the odometer reset button once and you will see the selection menu "PSSPt" with the first P flashing.
- Each letter represents an area of the diagnostics module. The module that is flashing is the one you are going to check. To move from one letter (module) to the next, you push the odometer reset button one time. Example: from P to S to SP to T and back to P.
- To get the DTC within an area of diagnostics, push and hold the odometer reset button in for 5 seconds and release. If there are any DTC's the code will be displayed or the word 'NONE' will appear if there are no DTC's.
- Push the odometer reset button again to view additional codes if they exist -Record the codes.
- Press and release the odometer reset button to continue to the next module.
