Light came on :(

Hey guys I have a 08 gsr with no owner manual and there is a small triangle with an exclamation point inside of it that's right beside tarmac. What does this mean?

Either the timing chain stretched or the sensor needs to be cleaned. That's what I find with a search.

The timing chain light is susposed to be the trangle and exclamation point also but it takes up the whole display from what I hear

It seems if it's the timing chain you won't throw a cel as well. Others seemed to have gotten that triangle with ACD malfunction as well.

I think it's check the psi on the tire.
