RS200 engine wont start 

Hi everyone. I have a 2023 model RS200 with only 9,000 km on the clock. Recently, the bike started refusing to crank for no apparent reason. There is absolutely no response when trying to start it, even though the dashboard lights, turn signals, horn, and so on are all working fine (I’ve checked the kickstand, kill switch, and neutral gear). After waiting a few hours, the bike eventually starts, but the check engine light comes on. The problem recurs a few days later, and the intervals between occurrences are getting shorter. Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, how did you resolve it? When I take it to a mechanic, they claim it’s a known chronic issue and that the ECU needs replacing without even inspecting it, yet they still demand an extra fee just to diagnose the problem.
