Hi guys,
I ran this question on a local ( portuguese ) FB Group, some folks told it also happens ramdomly to them....no apparent reason that anyone knows, even with new less than 1 year old bikes.
Really simple to explain..... Key ON, fuel pump builds pressure, ignition button, bike seems more sluggish than usual to get started ( more revolutions on starter motor ), then the engines starts and dies almost immediately.....Key OFF to kill the lights, Key ON, starts immediately....
This has happened a 2 or 3 times, with no apparent reason. Bike runs fine, has a Yuasa 14S, had 12,74v this morning, on idle it's stable at 14,30v, so everything works fine......recently it had 4 new plugs, valves checked and adjusted ( all 8 were tight ), new camchain, FI throttle bodies cleaned and synched...never ran better, feels and sounds like a new bike, much less rattle and engine noise than before ( though it'll never be a quiet one...this also had happened before all this maintenance.
Have you had this happen to your bike ? Any idea why ?
