this problem happened to me a while ago and then it stopped and is now happening again I had just started riding and was in second gear and it shut off on me I turned it back on and while i was on the freeway it tried to shut off again but i gave it gas and stayed on. I do this now everytime it tries to shut off but it only happens once or so during that trip anyone know what this could be
Sounds like maybe it's fuel related. Dirty or clogged strainer, problem with fuel pump etc. I would start buy grabbing a manual and testing the fuel pressure and go from there. Also take out a plug and see what it looks like.
How does it cut off? Is it just as if you had switched the engine stop switch to STOP? When it shuts off, does the dash say CHEC? Does it stutter? When it runs, does it perform normally, or is there hesitation/bogging at high load operation for instance? If it just switches off, it might be the sidestand switch, or some other part of the interlock.
It's possible that you have a faulty tip-over sensor, kickstand switch, or killswitch. I would start by wiring the kickstand switch together and see if the problem is resolved. If it is, something is wrong with the returning action of the kickstand. A simple remedy to this is removing the sidestand, cleaning up all the grime and dirt, then use a quality grease on all mating surfaces.
Makes sense. What made me think fuel was the fact he said he had to give it gas when it tried stalling on him again. If it was one of the switches, giving it gas wouldn't prevent stalling. :dunno
