Went for a ride tonight, I have the Base abs set to P etc and i currently have about 400 mile on the clock, had the usual issues with smoking and using oil but on the whole the bike has been fantastic, dont think ive enjoyed riding so much.
Except tonight something strange happened, Id been riding about 40 mins so the bike was nicely warmed up, coming down our bypass road i slowed and turned right at a roundabout at around 30 ish mph i accelerated out the roundabout but only for a short way as i was turning right, as i braked for the turn the bike just cut out like id hit the kill switch?? which i hadnt done. electrics where still working all lights on dash where lit, so i pulled clutch in and rolled to side of road.
Hit the starter and hey presto she started up again without any issue, did another 10 or so miles and it never happened again.
Not sure what it was but has anybody else experienced this?
Im hoping it was just some Italian quirkiness coming out.
Other than that 1 little moment the bike has been superb!
Feels so planted and assured in the corners even at these lower revs and she seems to want to lean for ever!!
