My light keeps coming on when I get around 110 mph does anybody know why this is?
I sure do, but I need a ton more information.
What jetting do you run?
Are the carbs cleaned?
What gas do you use?
Is the sled well maintained, more spesificly, are the pv's in working order and are the exhaust donuts sealing well?
Are the intake manifolds/joints in good shape?
Do you have a clutching that might lug on top end?
Is your TPS within spec?
Do you have any air in the coolant system?

Ok sled has 1700 miles on it all stock except can an trods power valves are clean carbs clean no clutch kit the only thing I could think of is when I was coming into a town I got gas and it was only 90octtane so I only put 10 bucks in but I filled up two more times with 93 and today I hit about 112 and I look and saw light flashing

Sounds like the DCS is doing it's job. You may not have 93 octane like you think.
If the pump shares a nozzle with other octane fuels, you may have a hose full of 87 before getting the 93 you payed for. Could be just enough to set up deto and hence the DCS. Or stale 93 which may not be 93 nomo.
Mr. Viper and others have suggested using some octane booster as a precaution. It's a PITA but the alternative may be catostrophic.
