    Friend Has problem with his bike

    Hey all. A friend of mine has a 01 CBR 600 F4i. The FI light is on. Bike seems to be running ok. The fuel tank is 3/4 full. Any thoughts as to where I should begin looking. I haven't had a chance to look at it yet, just looking for a heads up if this is a common problem, or if I will need to really dig into it.

    Thanks.

    Disconnect the battery and reboot the sucker. If it reappears, I'm guessing there is an issue.

    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    If it's like a GSXR, you can short a wire across a connector and display the FI code. Check around on the CBR forums and a service manual if you have one, I'm sure it's similar.

    I'll check some forums for the wire shorting. I'll also have him pick up a service manual or find it online.

    Barn, Thanks. That was my first suggestion to him as well.
