Embarrassing moment.

Coming up to a roundabout yesterday slowed down behind a car and stalled the bike and the thing would not start again, it was like there was hardly any power from the battery, then I remembered in the manual it says if the bike don't start while hot open the throttle a bit, did this and it fired up straight away, glad I remembered this as I was starting to panic a bit.
And I know I should not have done this but in town there is a double mini roundabout followed by a set of traffic lights so I slowed down for the roundabouts crossed them, the lights were green and before I could get going again a guy in a mini started beeping me, so I just slowed down to 15 mph and rode like that for a while, he couldn't overtake but he did not beep again. I always say to myself don't get wound up on the bike after I nearly dropped it once so after I was disappointed with myself.

My bike stalled at a light for the first time this morning since I have owned it. I just recently changed the plugs and air filter, and started to think that something was not right because like yours it just seemed to have no power to start. I did not know about opening the throttle a bit, and it would start and run for a second then shut off. I must have throttled a bit when starting the 4th time and got it going. Ran fine after that and started fine 3 times after getting to work. I was on a steep incline and it is hot as balls this early in SC.

Strange, but learned something from you today, thanks.

Not nearly as embarrasing as beeping at an insect, ffs.
