    The road from aber is awesome and I know it well, there's a set of 10 bends where I overtook Mozz after following him for 10 miles and being very impressed by his progression however knowing the bends were approaching I took my opportunity to PROGRESS.

    I then overtook Joe and it fealt like a tt lol, on the next 180 large left I hit a pothole with my knee it dragged my leg under the bike at full lean so I just hadd to leave it there.

    I have no leather on my knee and a boot that might need replacing :unsure: oops

    Not certain it can with FI but it used to happen when the fuel evaporated from float bowls in carbs so I'd guess there's something similar with FI

    update on the bike is that dealer put it on their laptop checking for any stored codes telling why it cut out and wouldnt start saturday night, NO FI codes stored checked all wiring to see if any loose or dirty connections, Nothing so I am no wiser what the problem was or is, I actually rode to the garage didnt miss a beat, now just thinking wtf if it does it when Im making good progress in outside lane of Motorway,

    Easy test.

    Start bike (if it will) then turn bars right left. If it cuts out it's gonna be a connection around the head stock somewhere. Multi plugs can have just 1 connection that can be affected. Use a meter set on ohms to check you may only get a slight drop accross 1 connection when you turn the bars and that can cause a cut out, and won't show up on the fault codes.

    If it won't start turn the bars each way to and try again, then same as above.

    Sue went from the er6n to the street triple and she's vertically challenged.
