| Description of the problem | I was exiting the freeway at 55mph when i slightly banked right, the engine died. I coasted to the side, turned the ignition switch off, then back on and it started and ran perfectly. The engine died again while entering the freeway at a later time. Again, i was banking to the right on a sweeping turn. The bike started as before after coasting to side of the onramp. I rode without a problem until i entered the freeway at the same on ramp a few hours later. The engine died in the same exact place. This is a dangerous situation! |
