    Hey folks,

    I was out on my bike today and the bike cut out whilst in 3rd gear accelerating.........
    I pulled over and turn the key to the off position and turned it back on and the bike started fine.........

    So any ideas why this could of happened?

    The bike has been serviced at the stated intervals and is well looked after.

    Try the usual suspects mate.

    Kill switch, stand switch, and even battery terminals.

    Glad it's sorted jay, nothing worse than the bike cutting out and you having no idea why !
    Old R1 had a faulty kill switch that had me ready to sell bike after 3 weeks
    Con checked the bugger twice no snags then third time nothing !
