All: I posted about my 2002 X1's electrical system cutting out once at a stop light. I cycled the key and it started up and was fine on the way home except...
All I can think of is: * bank angle sensor faulty * keyswitch faulty (I had this happen to my 2001 S3) * break/short in the wiring harness (unfortunately...
No codes at all. Does the bank angle sensor cut electrical or just spark? Were is this located on the bike? I'll the keyswitch again, I hope that it. THanks,...
I don't have my shop manual handy, but I think the bank angle sensor cuts everything. On the other hand, it will cut everything until the keyswitch is toggled...
I was working on a Yamaha RoadStar recently with similar symptoms. Cause was a fuse which tested ok for continuity, but would cut-out once in awhile - must...
Yeah, good call. It's not too expensive just to swap all the fuses out at once, even as a test. If it fixes the problem, great, if not - at least you now have...
Nope, just running straight and at any RPM. I pulled all of the fuses, but still just one can't kill the entire electrical system, only parts of it. Everything...

Are you running lower octane in the high altitudes? You will notice in the higher altitudes the gas stations sell lower octanes for a reason, the air is thiner...
