A buddy of mine just picked up an 05 1000. It has a SPI pipe and can. The check engine light is flashing and th buyer said that it is because of the pipe and can. Is this true? Things to check for?

Thanks

Mine does it and I have the stock pipe. No idea. Just get a green blinking light and you'll have a christmas sled.

Check the connections on your sensors. Most of the time it ends up being the one for the air box on the left side panel.

I just rebuilt the motor. I know the air box one is connected. I think I got all of the other wires connected properly. I sled pulls over extreamly hard with the rope. I can't do it with one hand. I am new to 1000. Is this unusual???

There are two attached to the air box, the air temp sensor and the air pressure sensor. It could also be the water temp sensor located on the mag side were the coolant hose comes out of the head.

I would not point my finger at the pipe, check all the connectors.... you may need to get the codes read by the dealer.
