    Hi all; just been out got a ride. After a few minutes of travel the blade just cut out( in 3rd gear). I started the bike again and it cut out again in about 1 mile 3rd gear. This happened again. I still went on my ride to squires without any repetition. What is causing this?
    1) could it be the side stand; might not of been in the horizontal?
    2) fuel, I recently filled up with the super type of petrol (bp)?
    3) Before I went out I tested the kill switch?
    The local mechanic said I should take to Honda and let them plug it into their computer.
    Anybody else had a similar problem? How was it resolved? Thanks

    plus if you have any mods done lately check the electrical connection, shorts may cause the bike to cut out too
