The other day my check engine light came on so I plugged the TuneBoy in to see what the problem is. The error code is "P0113 - Intake air temp sensor open circuit or short to battery"
Anyone had this error? I'll be calling the dealership in the morning to schedule a time to bring it in. Any doubts it will be OK to ride it down there as is?
Thanks!

I've got the same problem and is waiting for a new sensor from Triumph (guarantee issue)...
The sensor is mounted in the air intake behind the air filter on top of the air box. You can easily find it with the gas tank dismounted, it is just behind the right of the ECU-connectors.
You may want to measure the connectors, there should be a resistance variable with the temperature between the connectors. Mine have no contact at all, so ,according to Tuneboy, my ECU believes is constant -20 degrees celcius outside :roll:
Consequences - Your bike is getting additional fuel to compensate for the "cold weather". This is no danger at all to the engine (will sometimes run slightly rich), and it is not running in any "safety map" condition. My mech and I hace agreed that I can drive my bike while the parts are on their way during full guarantee. Futher more, the bike will never get into "closed loop" on idle because of "o2 fault code" (can be spotted running TuneEdit).
