I NEVER use the kill switch (Unless I have dropped the bike while its running) After I dropped it from a stationary position in front of 10 other rocket riders whist stopped at road works (it rolled forward off the stand), I always just kick the side stand out to stop the engine and leave it in gear and turn the key off.
Start the bike cold. DON'T TOUCH THE THROTTLE. Wait until the cooling fan cycles on. Start counting, 1001,1002,1003 until you get to 12 minutes. This resets the engine computer. It might run a little weird until you ride it some and allow the adaptives to well...adapt !
Fred, I am pretty sure mine worked on my 05 when I had my accident in June. I know I didn't hit the kill switch I was just looking to get away from her. When I rolled over she was dead, so I am sure it worked. I prefer not to do any further tests in that area!
