“Driving my spyder on the interstate it would show a code dps on my display and as long as it displayed you could not steer motorcycle. This happened at least six times in one week. You could stop and shut unit off then restart and go 50 to 100 miles then flash code dps again. The fault code p0550 was stored as long as bike was running.”
