    Have any of the guys who fitted exhaust or more specifically an full Akra says two had this problem. I've not actually been out on a run since I fitted it 2 weeks ago but I have started it up a couple of time and every time I start it the engine light now flashes a few times then goes off, a few moments later it does it again.

    I fitted a power commander a few days ago and I connected the O2 eliminator but the light remains flashing. I'm hoping there is a quick fix, the bike will be getting a custom map in the next week or so so will see if he can sort it but I'm hoping there is something I can do in the meantime. Maybe I've done something wrong or is this a common thing when fitting a new exhaust.

    Bike in question is a 2015 blade, full Akra system.

    Have you still got the exhaust servo connected? It might just need rotating back 90 degrees (I think).
    It has been covered a lot on here maybe search it.

    Thanks Shane, I had tried the servo already but I've just been out again and turned it a little more and the light has now gone out. I was a little worried I may turn the servo too much as it doesn't stop turning but it seems to have worked now I've turned some more.

    You'd be better off getting a servo eliminator (esrm) to avoid the warning light problems and servo problems if it turns to far with no wire attached

    Just ordered one through biker discount, £42 delivered so will get this installed to be on the safe side.

    Just read back and didn't realise when he said "speedycom" that he was referring to a shop as I've never heard of it. Just took a look on speedycom and they're a little more expensive so hoping the one I've bought is just as good.
