Good evening all,
Just for clarity, I bought my bike last year with 16,000kms and this season I happily put another 11,000kms. My issue started last week. I push the bike out of my garage and start it on the side stand to warm up for a few minutes. Obviously the bike is in neutral. Once i get on the bike I pull up the side stand and the bike lurches forward stalling. So far, its happened 4 times. The only way I can explain it, is that I am somehow knocking the shifter as my foot passes. It does surprise me though, as I am not "BIG" footed and this has never happened before. I'm going to re-adjust the shifter higher to try to keep the side stand away from the shifter but I'm worried there might be something more afoot. Has anyone here have a similar issue that didn't involve the "big foot" syndrome?
cheers
Norm
