QUESTION: hey mike i checked the volts at the battery at about 2000 rpm i dont have a tech but at an idle it reads about 12.40 and at about 2000 rpm it reads about 1800 from 2000 rpm on up thanks curt

Answer
You are charging fine. Since your check engine light is coming on what you will need to do is hae a dianostic run on the bike to see what the problem is. One of the sensers might be going bad, but without the dianostic you will not know
Good luck and happy riding
