I don't know, Stacka. This thread of yours has turned towards the problem you're having as being electrical. Yet as I sit here I wonder why (for example) would the side stand switch cause the bike to die, only to start up again after a few minutes. It's the part about how it "starts after a few minutes" that causes me to doubt the problem is electrical.

I remember a car I had would die, only to start up again after a few minutes. Turned out to be debris in the fuel tank getting clogged against the in-tank filter as fuel was sucked out. Once the car sat for a few minutes, the crud fell away and settled out and the car started up again, only to have the cycle repeat itself. Drove me crazy until I figured out what it was. In other words, I still wouldn't rule out the possibility of your problem having something to do with fuel delivery. But then again... what do I know?! Just thinking out loud.
