I just bought this 2005 on Saturday and have finally gotten comfortable enough to move out of the parking lot and onto the street.
Now I find out that she likes to stall after a nice run whenever I come to a stop. Once stalled, it's a PIA to get her started again. If I keep giving her gas when stopped, she will stay running.
I also noticed that there seems to be a slight "klunk" when shifting gears and the bike almost wants to move when I hit the starter.
Is it possible that the clutch isn't disengaging all the way, just enough to cause these problems? Please keep in mind that I know nothing about motorcycles, but I am very good with turbocharged 4 cylinder cars. Thanks!
