friend and i were riding last night,he has a 2011 xtx apex,and he had a oil code come up,it would go away when he started to move,and come back on when he sat still.he just tripped 500 miles,and we were wondering if they had a 500 mile service light,no warning lights were flashing or the engine icon.does anybody know anything about this?and is there a way to cancell without going back to the dealer?

I have read on here that it is a reminder to get the service done since it is an important one. I think if there was a problem you would see the engine light.

I would wait for others to reply before going out riding since i dont have an apex it is just what i have read one here. Also not 100% sure what goes on at the first service, oil change for sure and maybe just adjusting stuff?

It's covered in the manual. The number is the mileage since the 500 mile oil change reminder lights up. The reset procedure is covered in the manual. It also has a unique feature pertaining to the low fuel light. Records the mileage from when the light comes on. Mine came on, and we traveled 19 miles before filling up. Still had 2 gallons left in the tank when I filled up

I changed my oil at 475 and didn't do the reset and got the oil code, needless to say after the ride finished I reset it and haven't seen it again. Found it in the owners manual, i'm bad!!!
