Flashing Traction Control light problem – RT1250 LE

Post by Tony Fyson »

During a charity run yesterday, the traction control light began flashing many times, under normal acceleration, on a grippy road surface in dry conditions.
The bike feels down on power.
Is this something I can rectify myself, or does it require dealer intervention?
Will it damage my bike, if not rectified quickly?
My bike has covered 3,700 miles from new.
Thanks.
Tony.

Thanks for the advice.  I changed from Dynamic to Road mode, and back again.  So far, the problem seems to have been solved.  And, yes, strangely it only occurred when cornering.
