I noticed tonight when i was leaving the parts store, when i start the bike up and pull in the clutch, and try to put it in first it dies. Anybody know what might be causing this. The bike has barely 2000 miles. Thanks for any advice. Also, it doesnt kick and die, like the clutch may be going out, it just dies.

 

Side stand switch would be my bet.

 

Simply amazing. Sure enough it was side stand switch. I feel like a tard now. thanks again, chainstretcher!

 

kick stand down > or poorly adjusted kick stand safety switch you can not have the vehicle running in gear w/ the kick stand down

 

Figured this out as i stated in the post above
