Late last spring my engine started cutting out on me. It would just die for half a second and roll start again. It idles fine and runs great except for that. I Checked the fuel and vent lines, battery connections, cleaned kickstand kill switch and even replaced the kill switch on the bars. About two weeks ago on my way to work, it shut down completely, lights, dashboard and all and left me on the median of I-5. About 5 minutes later I tried the key again and it started and ran normally. Got a couple more miles and same thing again. Took it into the shop and after two weeks of waiting they call and tell me they rode it, can't find a problem and it runs great.
I'm thinking it must be an electronic component that's getting hot, shutting down and then working normally when it cools off again.
Anyone have any suggestions aside from find a better shop? I don't want to keep riding it if it's going to leave me stranded somewhere or get me crushed on the freeway.
