Just picked up an 06 with 6k on the odometer 2 weeks ago. Rode yesterday about 30 miles with no problems. Went to go for a ride today. Started right up, put in gear, and engine shut off. Did this about 15-20 times and I checked the kickstand/ safety to make sure it was up and disengaged. Seems like the sensor may be bad? Any other ideas to what may be causing this? Thanks for your input.
Sidestand switch or the sidestand is down. Check it out or bypass the switch by connecting the two wires togeather.
Side stand switch often gets a bit sticky on mine, spray a little WD40 into/onto it and push it in and out a few times and its normally fine. Worth trying before testing the wiring.

Thanks for the input fellas. I took the sidestand safety switch off and it appears as it was in fact stuck and just bottoming out on the sidestand. I just loosened the bolts slightly, to prevent it from binding and that appears to do the trick. A few shots of WD40 and cleaned it up and so far, so good! Thanks again.
