eNiMaLx Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Hey all, I have a question regarding a 2003 VFR800A. For some reason, the bike makes a beeping sound 13 times, followed by a pause of 30 seconds if I remember correctly, then it repeats for the duration of the ride. It seems to constantly do it whenever I ride 2-up, and I believe it did only one time while I was riding solo. No lights on the dashboard. Anyone have any idea?

On a stock standard 6gen there is no aural or audible type of beeper warning systems, so unless there have been added electrical devices, then the noise can't be electrical! Do you have any type of added electrical devices or wiring mods? Alarm system installed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eNiMaLx Posted July 14, 2020 Author Share Posted July 14, 2020 Mystery solved! It was the speedometer app I downloaded and used that day to verify the VFR's speedometer that kept running in the background with a warning at anything over 20 kph. I initially didn't hear it because of the wind and must've forgotten about it. Also explains the mystery battery drain that day... I initially thought it was a warning beep to warn you that you have a passenger riding 2-up lol. It made sense since I could only hear it at low speeds, though the fact it completely disappeared at anything below 20 kph and kept going at anything above 20 kph was strange indeed for a passenger caution warning lol.

That will teach you for riding over 20kph. you've been warned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
