I'm a big guy, so I had Race Tech upgrade the suspension on my '16 ES a while ago. The rear shock is now manual-only adjust, which is fine with me. The front used to be adjustable using the onscreen interface, but not anymore.
I let the bike sit for too long this winter, so the battery discharged to the point that it wouldn't start. I charged the battery and it started.
However, now the suspension light is on and I have no access to any of the suspension settings, complete with error code '44.'
I installed a new battery myself, but no joy.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue? Race Tech tells me to take it to a Yamaha dealer and the Yamaha dealer tells me to take it to Race Tech.
Is there a way to completely remove the ES system and go to manual, front and rear?
Race Tech initially told me that they had experience with upgrading the ES. While I was at their shop, having the upgrades completed, they told me that mine was the first one that they had worked on.
I should have purchased the non-ES model. It would have made this whole thing a lot easier. It would have been nice for someone at the dealership to clue me in on how the stock ES suspension wasn't going to work for a guy my size, and that there was no way for me to upgrade that system.
Kinda stuck here. Any help would be much appreciated.
