With the kick stand up, I can shift into first and slowly release the clutch and give it some throttle. When I fully release the clutch the bike skids to a stop, the brakes lock up and it dies.
Any thoughts???
StAnd down, in gear, it dies.
Put the stand up, fire it up, in neutral, put it in gear, rev it a couple of times, not
Wind it out
Just goose it a bit. Now, gas it and ease off the clutch.
Go ahead, do it on the kinda crazy side. Give that thing some gas, slip the clutch once,you're not gonna wreck it,,
And you Did say it rolls in neutral And you're not accidentally laying a heavy foot on the brake, right?
Did you bypass the stand switch? If not, use your heel, hold it up..
I'd bypass the switch for now.. just to eliminate the possibility.
