It seems to be more a mechanical type problem like a fuel or air leak. How many miles has the bike done and do you know if the maintenance schedule been followed?
I only get an F1 warning for 1 reason, when my bike ignition turns on and it's in gear and on the stand. This started after we removed the alarm, but it's no biggie.
There is no other warning. Are SV's quite intuitive for errors on electrics? I read I can run a diagnostic check on it but didn't know if this was something worth taking further or not.
(I'm not used to vehicles that tell you what's wrong )

I did assume it was an air problem. The bike has only done 16k and has been garaged nearly all its life.
