Worse day ever didnt end so bad.
Ok Im gonna try to explain the best I can. Work sucked,and what ever can go wrong, did... On my way to the I tried to turn my ipod on.....NOPE...dead. What it was fully charged. Can hear it click , but screen was blank and no sound..WTF. 1hr ride home with no tunes.GREAT. Go to open the frunk and get my jacket an it didnt open right away, turn the bike on. It starts up in 1st gear....transmission error..( or transmission something) appears on the screen. HUH. shut it down. Hop on it ,start it up, same thing. Started up in 1st gear same code. Couldnt put it in reverse, tried to drive but it sounded like it was going to stall... Shut it off, get off the .Was about to get the manual out when i was so mad i punched the seat. seat popped up. shut the seat. hop on the bike. start the bike up and its in netural. I guess I must have hit the unlock gas instead of unlock frunk the first time. So i guess if anybody has this happen to them ,check ur seat.!! I would have thought my 195lbs would have locked the seat back down,but i guess not. Just wanted to share my dumby moment!

I hate days like that, it happens all the time. In your defense, the seat may not have been open. There is a problem with the gear shift box that makes the bike no know what gear it is in, thereby making the bike unstartable. If you shake the bike back and forward it realigns the gear shift box. Maybe you hit it just right to pop it back where it needed to be.
Tomorrow will be a better day.

No, it was the seat. Sometimes when im talking to someone or too much on my mine I pus the key left instead of right to open the frunk. im just glad it was a easy fix because I didn't want to me at work anymore. The ipod? I when home and tried to synic it to my laptop. Laptop made a noise like i plugged something in the usb port but Itunes didnt show my ipod. So I left it on the counter for a day and then turned it on..low battery, plugged it into my laptop and BAM....works. It was just a bad day, phyically,mentally, electronicly...etc..etc.. But ALL is well with the world once again.
