As soon as I shift from neutral in to first gear the bike stalls. And it stalls immediately as if I shifted it in to gear without even holding in the clutch, but it doesn't jolt forward at all. Perhaps if I tighten the clutch cable? Any other ideas?

 

I had this same problem. My kickstand wasn't up.

 

As soon as I finished typing, I realized the problem. Went out and it started right up. Thanks!

 

Was it the side stand?

 

HAHAHAHA.......I had this same problem.....god i felt stupid.....i know your pain

 

everyone has been there

 

yup was once stuck at work for an extra 2 hours on my bandit going insane over this,,, Got a real bike after

 

count me in as one of those smart ones haha, I got so excited we've actually had some warm days lately. I forgot about the kick stand and thought I was having problems with my bike
