Hello, I'm new here, and new to the Harley world. I bought my 2007 1200 Sportster Custom about three weeks ago from a private party. Took it in to a local mechanic that was recommended to me, who looked it over and serviced it - said I had a nice bike and everything was tight on it.
Anyway, I was riding to work the other day and I got an amber 'check engine' light and a red 'battery' light at the same time. I continued to work and they seemed to go out on their own. I drove it home, and the lights didn't come back on. I got the codes off the odomoter (thanks to this website:bigsmiley12 and discovered that the only code was batter voltage low. I reset the codes and rode it to work today. No issues going to work, but coming home, the lights and code came back and stayed on .
Any insight or suggestions on where I should start with this? I'm guessing maybe the battery is going bad, and the check engine light is just something that comes on with the battery light???
Thanks a bunch
