Is the side stand down? Possibly an issue with the side stand switch. If the ECU detects the side stand down, when you put it in gear and ease out the clutch it will shut down the engine. By the way this section is for introductions only. You should have asked your question in the Tonti and Loop section.

Hi John, got it - wrong forum.
Had the previous owner to work on it, and he found a wiring issue near the side stand.
He will test drive later today - hope that removes the problem.
 
No need.

In an emergency type situation or broke down on the road...

You can bridge any switch like that, in the field, with 2 Positaps and a very small length of wire. PRESTO! Defective switch, now sends "Closed" signal and everything works like it should. I carry this in a tiny ziplock bag in my tiny toolkits on my motorcycles.
