    Hi folks
    So i was riding out today on my 900 scrambler and had to do an emergency stop, it stalled then wouldn’t start? Pulled to side of the road to try again and it just turned over with absolutely no intention of starting. I thought it could’ve been the tilt switch but nothing, pulled the fuses out and waited then it fired up but realy smelly exhaust? Left me with fault code for injector error?
    Few cycles later engine light went off. any ideas

    @James lambert If the bike has settled down now and is behaving as it should just continue enjoying the ride. I got the 400 and it did similar. I was about sixty miles from home. So i called my dealer and said the engine management light is on. They said just carry on and it should rectify itself which it did after three start stops. Welcome to the family and do hit the upload a file button bottom right and show of the bike.

    Sounds like you've already had quite the initiation with your bike! It’s reassuring when a dealer backs you up on something like that and great to hear it sorted itself out after a few starts. That must’ve been a relief, especially being miles from home. The 400 sounds like a solid choice—welcome to the community! If you've got any photos, we'd love to see it in all its glory.
