Engine dies at idle??

[brewsky]

07, 2400 miles......

1. start up in morning, let idle for minute or so ....idles ok

2. take off and stop at 1st stop sign...let off gas and pull in clutch and engine dies (1-2 bars on temp guage)

3. start back up and runs after giving some extra throttle

4. after complete warm up everything normal

5. same routine last 4 months every day ...no problems till last couple of days

???????????

Any ideas?

what's your warm idle speed? it should be around 1100 rpm.

Thanks,

Will adjust and see what happens.

Warm idle speed has been 900 since new, but never died before now.

Brewsky,

Mine does the exact same thing....

Did you find an answer to why it kills?

As mentioned earlier, what is you fully warmed idle setting; multiple threads on this have corrected stalling engines by tweeking your idle to the recommended level of 1100 rpms. (A few cases have been from bad throttle position sensors but this cause is rare.)

eworth,

My problem WAS the idle speed.

Run it up to 1100 rpm WARM and that should take care of it.

Thanks,

I'll check my idle rpm.

I have this problem with my '07

Unfortunately, the adjustment knob is at full.

Must I take it to the dealer to get more range out of that knob or is it easy enough to do with manual in hand and mechanical skills, but no familiarity (yet) with this bike?

thanks, Rich
