Cutting out....

[kbarnet5]

Just the last couple days I been noticing that when I shift into first and let go of the cluth it feels as though it wants to stall. (I give plenty of throttle). I thought maybe it would be with the fuel filter but I have only 300 miles. Any ideas ????

Check to see if any of the brakes (including parking brake) is stuck or dragging. Just a guess.

I noticed that when the engine is not fully warmed up, I get a stall from the injection system....which should never, ever happen. I have had the bike serviced a couple of times and the service dept. cannot re-create the problem (no problem, no fix). SO, it is important to get it documented for future work or if a recall comes by. Watch to see if it happens more often than not, during the early part of your ride.

Well I let it warm up for a while like 3 mins and still does it...

What is your RPMs when you are dropping into 1st gear?

How fast are you going?

Are you dropping from 2nd into first--- or from a higher gear right in to 1st?

Does your problem happen all the time or only when the engine is cold? A few of these replies refer to the cold running behavior of the engine. Mine runs rough for the first few minutes when I just fire it up and take off also. If it happens all the time, when 1 or more bars are showing on the temp gauge, then there is another problem.

Yeah has to be a cold problem.... After 50 miles of hard riding no problem at all... and no brake squeek either ::)

50 miles? I might talk to the service department about that. Mine straightens up within a mile or two with temps down in the 40s.
