Default Track Bike Conversion, Mods, Errors...

Hi Folks, I'm new to the boards, and I did a bit of searching and was unable to find the answer to my questions, so I'm asking for a bit of help...

Recently converted my S1000RR over to track only, along with a number of modifications, including:

Ohlins 30mm carts with superbike valving
Ohlins TTX Rear shock
Sharkskins with custom WSBK livery done by Drew Swenson
Custom WSBK Themed Decals
Carbon (painted) side tank panels
Full Akra SS System with TI can
Bazzaz ZFI and Autotune
Woodcraft Rearsets
Woodcraft Case sliders
CRG Levers (Black)
Full Safety Wiring Done
520 Conversion with Stock Gearing
Zero Gravity Windscreen









Issue I'm having, after putting it all back together, I'm getting a couple error codes that I'm trying to address.



First, and most concerning is the DTC Traction Control Error light. Is anybody aware of what mod I did that may have caused this, and how I might address it?

Second, the headlamp error...obviously, no more lamps at all. Short of getting a track harness, and suggestions on how I make this go away?

All in all, I'm really happy with the build (this is my third mod/build effort - priors include 05 CBR1000RR, 08 CBR1000RR, 08 Ducati 848), and I'd like to get this thing all squared away.

Thanks again in advance for any help, and once again, sorry if I missed a thread on this after the searching...

If you hate your nearby dealer, there is another way: alpha racing fault code kit, you might be get it from eBay! I got basic package. Just for the lights and mirrors plugs. The extend kit covers the fault code you are experiencing

Thanks guys. I just did some additional research and discovered that the DTC had turned itself off when I had the battery disconnected to do some of the mods, so I just reset it and it's working again.

I am still getting the regular triangle error related to the lamp (I guess) so again, any help would be appreciated.

Regarding the belly pan, it's a standard Sharkskinz belly pan with a nice paint job. The only carbon is on the side tank panels, where we've blended the carbon with the paint.

Thanks man. I'll do that. It just annoys me to have an amber triangle in my face when I'm trying to ride! Hahahahaha!

Here's the bike during the modification process.






I personally did not care for the yellow, but I knew from the beginning this was going to be my track ho. I wrecked my 08 CBR1000RR on the track last year, and decided to replace it with this bike.

LosPer Down: Mid Ohio 9-6-10 - YouTube

This was the bike before she got destroyed about a year ago.
