Say What? Following quotes are from the ad. I added the emphasis.
“Nice. Third set of tires. 4 Oil Changes. 5834 Miles”
"It has two long, with three short blinks on the engine light. It started to blink when I put race tires on it. Because they were taller tires, I believe.
Runs great. Oil changed three times. I always meant to get that sorted..... Instead I put a sticker over it."

LOL...you're faster than me at the search feature, Mickey. I remembered this bike. He even had a write-up about it in Motorcyclist Magazine. I read that article and decided he was an idiot (my opinion, of course). Here's the quote that tipped the scales for me:
"My favorite thing is to get the ugliest bike out there and try to make it look neat. And that CB looks terrible from the factory! The OVER Racing swingarm I used here, and all the carbon fiber, all that came from the Japanese aftermarket, and it was really hard to locate. The handmade, limited-edition Yoshimura pipe is sourced from Japan, too. I hate the way it sounds—it's so quiet—so I'm going to cut it up and rebuild it with a high-mount Racefit can."
The entire "Me & My Bike" article can be found here...

Good memory, Mickey! 3 sets of tires though, whew! How hard does he ride that thing? And putting a sticker over the blinking 'check engine' light sounds a little cheesy to me.....

If I'm reading the manual right, it is showing DTC 23 which is fault code for O2 sensor heater circuit malfunction.
Says check loose or poor contact of the O2 sensor connector or O2 sensor or its circuit malfunction.

Worth every penny if you're in the market for a modded bike IMO.
The builder has a world wide reputation and he used excellent quality parts. Bet you that's a terrific bike to ride

Sorry, no "reputable" builder would put a sticker over the check engine light instead of fixing it.............
