The spyder is a 2012 limited, new, they trailered it to this area and had only a mile or two on it. It has the check engine light on, I pulled up the codes for him and it is showing P0504. He said he checked the oil as it was leaking under the bike and the oil was overfilled by over 1 liter. He pulled that out but the light is still on (limp mode as well). His name is Jerry and I told him about Spyderlovers, he may try to log on from his smart phone. I thought I would try and help so reply and I will get the message to him.
thank you for your replys.

Is he familiar with the proper procedure for checking the oil level?

I have his email that he can check on his phone, I assume so as he and his friend seemed mechanically competent. I'll shoot him an email. thanks,

P0504 is Brake Signal Not Plausible. That means the brake pedal was pushed but no pressure was sensed. My guess is he is riding the brake pedal.

Thanks for the info. I will email him and hopefully that's all it is. As he is a new rider, I bet that is it.

Common problem. Even when riders barely contact the pedal it can happen. Since last year's update, it no longer triggers limp mode, but it will trigger a check engine warning.
