Martin- Sorry to hear about your misadventure. I would think that a fuel problem would stumble rather than just cut out, but the self cure by sitting for 20...
Thank's for your help. I had the same thoughts regarding the fuel, the cut off was instant, not at all like when going from main to reserve. I can't figure it...
I don't have personal experience with it, but after reading the TBS board for about 2 years I've seen similar symptoms with a bad coil which they are known...
I agree with whoever said to check the tipover valve. The easiest way to check that, is to see if the bike will run with the gas cap off, which will eliminate...
Wish it were so simple. I just started it from cold and it ran idling for over 5 mins then just shut down and wouldn't restart, that was with the fuel cap off....
Martin- I doubt that the coils would behave as you are describing too. As far as I know there is no overheat cut off. The first thing to check with an ...
Good suggestions, the battery seems fine 13.47 volts, the lights are bright and when it cranks the engine over real fast. I spent 10 mins turning the engine...
Besides the Ingntion switch that has been mentioned, there is the ignitor box that sits infront of the battery, and the ignition trigger that is under the...
Hi Niles, Wanna bet another 5 bucks that this is coils, too? ;-) This is exactly what happened to me when I had my coil problem - bike would cut out, sit for a...
Do you have a fuel filter on the bike? Last my filter kept clogging...I did not realize it was the filter that had to be changed. I changed plugs, a coil,...

The sensor tells the igniter box where the engine is in it's rotation, so the box can guess when to make a spark. I've not looked for it on my TBS, but my...
Thanks guys, I've got the sucker out, it was as you said by the crankshaft on the right hand side, retained by two screws. I'll call the dealer and see what...
I'd be prepared to bet 5 "bucks" it was the sensor, if I had any "bucks" and any way to make/receive payment! As it is, I'll chicken out of the bet and settle...
