Been discussed a bunch already. No one knows. I put a video on youtube

 

The red logo on shutoff is an Easter Egg from Yamaha.

Incase you do not know what I am talking about...

It's your ECU throwing an error code when you see that on shut down. I think it was code 58 if I remember correctly. Not a Easter egg by Yamaha, but a defect. If you run your ECU on a diagnostic it will show that code thrown for every time you have seen that display

 

What's code 58?

 

Yamaha Corp. Tech told me that and so did the last dealer and all the dealers my bike has been at. The bikes diagnostics won't show it. I don't remember exactly what the number was. I had posted this before in another thread about that same thing. It translates to engine/electrical malfunction. Not making any of this up. believe it if you want or don't

 

Not doubting you one bit. I had it show one time that was it

The first rule about the red tuning fork on shutdown is not to talk about the red tuning fork on shutdown...

 

So then what the hell is it? Is it a bug in the software? Something that comes on and off randomly isn't normal! :nono:

 

You all thinking too much into this logo. The bike is fine, been doin it for over 2 years on mine.

I noticed that mine just did this last night. And you know what?

I had a yamaha tech tell me it had something to do with PRM trying to activate. Maybe he was right? :dunno

Now all you need to know is the code to turn on PMR. 2006 and prior too was so much easier to turn it on. I cut into the wire harness and put a button on it so all I had to do while riding is hit the PMR button in case, in the rare occasion, there was a faster bike f-en with me.:saw:

 

that prm is like vtec right?

 

That's what I've heard. I've never been able to activate it though.

 

The only way the PRM is activated is if you play the piano at the same moment the red forks appear. But I heard after it's activated it's +30 hp
