[QUOTE="trimmantom, post: 120371, member: 107"] Hi tjgraves,I've had the very same problem with my 04. Took it to the shop and they determined it was a bad side stand switch. It was replaced and seemed to correct the problem_______ for a while because it is now doing the same thing only when i've ridden it for a while and it's real hot.One thing you might try if you're mechanically handy is to unplug the side stand switch and run a jumper on the plug to bypass the switch,which is what the mechanic did originally to diagnois the problem originally. It's very frustrating because the damn thing doesn't do this all the time and when I take it to the shop they can't seem to duplicate what the bike is doing.The last time i had it in the shop for this crap i went over there and took the bike out to ride it long enough to duplicate what it had been doing.I rode the sucker almost 200 miles and could not get it to exhibit the symptoms as you described so I took it home and have ridden it for a couple thousand miles with not much as a hiccup.Today I took it for a ride in 95 degree heat and it started bumping again like an ignition problem.I don't know know what to do with it,can't leave it in the shop for weeks and not get it fixed. I've done the TPS test numerous times and it has come up negative every time.I'm going to replace it anyway as the bike has 30000 miles on it and see if that makes a difference. If you get a resolution to your problem please post your solution.Good luck [/QUOTE]
