Specifically at junctions or is it when it is hot?

Is it wet? Mine was rather unwell yesterday in the rain and cut out on me when I stopped at a set of lights. It got worse in the evening by dropping to a single 325cc on the M4 several times.

I have grease the front plug and lead for now to get me through the week.

Got a fender extension yes it was wet don't think clutch is dragging but could bad vacuum tube cause this.Also noticed fair amount of oil coming from crankcase breather tubes any ideas.

When mine was cutting out at junctions it was a dodgy clutch swich, so might be worth a check. Whats your warm idle rpm? mine is 1200

Is yours an injected bike, because on another thread it was said that the clutch switch affects the bikes efi settings causing it to run as if there was a choke in. I can't say it's true, only repeating an earlier thread.

If it is a curvy it is not injected, that came in on the K3 Pointy's

Hi all from cool FL. In lieu of a new thread I thought I do a treadsurrection here.

My 05 yank model was cutting out and stalling tonight after warming up a few miles. Under 4k, it was stumbling wanting to die but seemed normal above that. Dry weather and cooler than normal but this bike's been a garage queen since new, 2700 miles to date so all original. Any thoughts?

Cheers

Don't wether this helps mine turned out to be indicator relay and badly synced carbs

I could understand the carbs, but, was it because the relay was getting wet?

Mine's a EFI and it repeated the performance this morning, stuttering after warming up and stalling and rough stumbling <4k revs. I only went ~4-5 miles and it seemed to clear up at the end. Shut it off for a minute, cranked it up and it ran and idles like a champ. I did fill it with non-alcohol, pure gas(a rarity in the states) and have not really gone more than 3-4 miles with it prior on the tank full.

Bad gas perhaps or could a low battery have an effect? That doesn't stand to logic since this occurs only when warmed up. I'm longing for carbs...and not the sugary kind!
