Help i own a 1999 R1 and it keeps cutting out when riding, leave 10 mins or so it starts and drives a while then cuts out again !! any ideas anyone ? Ian
before you start getting into anything complex which it is prob not , short circuit side stand switch and clutch switch if it cuts sudenly .if it seems to run out of fuel could pos be the vac controled fuel tap .

Had a similar problem on my 750 SRAD last year, it turned out after a process of elimination I discovered a fault with the ECU, put simply I installed a pressure gauge with a 'T' fitting into the fuel line after the pump and mounted the gauge behind the front screen so as to keep an eye on whilst riding, also a remote switch to the fuel pump off a spare 12volt supply ( this was useful so as not to be stranded in the middle of nowhere! )
The conclusion was an intermitent breakdown on the 12 volt supply to the fuel pump within the ECU, the ECU circuitry had 2 modes for the fuel pump, one for priming and the other for engine running, engine running mode was the problem.
Might be worth a look if all other areas are ok.

hi i went into this forum for you it seems a common problem with whats known as the TPS sensors becoming fowled, and dirty, he says he cleaned them and he hasn,t had the cutting out problem since
