Yeah she won't let me go with the side stand down. Put it in gear and it dies even with the clutch suppressed.Jedz Moto

My ’09 Bonneville SE does the same with the side stand down — a safety feature.

(but on my RT it cutts out the ignition, but not the starter. So Doesn't occur to this old dog why its cranking but not starting.)

I'm pretty sure there is some sorcery going on in my bike, for a "standard" motorcycle the thing is loaded to the gills in tech. I often think/hope, Sure hope nothing electric goes.Jedz Moto
