Hi everyone, I have SM '07 with 2500 miles on it, couple mods...but recently last couple days, (sometimes when I am idling either on traffic light or just at front my garage)bike is warm and when I put in first gear, my bike automaticly shutts off
does any one had experience with it...my bike idles somewhere around 1000 rpm...
thanks

This my be the dumb question of the day but you should always start with the simple things... Is the kickstand down when you put it in gear?
Let my dying thought be that every mile was fun and let my tombstone read,"They never made one fast enough for me."

Could be the sidestand switch, neutral switch, clutch switch......
As she's an 07, I'd take it back to the dealer.

I had the same problem every morning when I left for work, I just bumped the idle up a skosh and it was okay.
