I put the bike in dealer mode and not throwing any codes but I see c00 the LED the RPMs shows the F1 with the red light flashing
If the FI indicator is on, and "red light flashing," then there must be an error code.

Try starting the engine while in dealer mode.

Do not key off until you read the codes.
I did start the bike and tried the dealer code it still showed me c00 no code but yet f1 and red light still flashing while the bike is running
one thing's for sure someone hacked up all the vacuum lines and I had to go through alland put every one of them back the way they were its funny how the bike was running but now it runs like s...t
very rich usually means the intake air pressure sensor is not receiving an air signal.

its the ONLY hose you REALLY need

to test it just run a single hose from the throttle body to it.

Also its very easy to switch the water temp and intake temp sensors. green to green ..........grey to grey .

check them too
okay I will try its very icy in cold down here in Texas so I'll probably wait for a couple of days when it warms up a little bit morewhat does the intake air pressure sensor look like because on some models that sensor is different compared to the boost sen.

The IAP or "boost" sensor is bolted to the back side of the air box. It has a vacuum line connected to it, and an electrical connector with three wires.

How did you come to this conclusion? How did you test or measure the sensor?
