start countdown
What is the countdown for on my 05 when you turn the key to on? At the dealership they told me if i didn't let that countdown I would foul the spark plugs. On the other hand someone told me I don't have to let it count down it will be fine. The guy said its not possible to flood it since its FI. I've done it before though. I could smell gas and the bike wouldn't start for about 15min.

I don't know about a specific time (3 seconds, 4 seconds, whatever) but on my '03 the following happens when i turn the key: the speedometer goes from 200mph down to zero, the tach goes from zero up to redline and down to zero again, and then I can hear the oil pump turn on. Once those things have all happened, then I hit the start button. I don't know if hitting the button before the bike is done "doing its thing" will harm anything, but I've never been impatient enough to find out...
