Default first gear problems

Hello I have a 2001 800 vulcan A .It has been a great bike untill lately.A few months ago when I would put it in first gear and let off the clutch it would die .It did this a few times then it was ok .But today I rode it to work and I had some trouble with it but thought it was the cold .It did the same as it has been doing but it finaly took off.I stoped at a gas station got back on and tryed to leave and now every time I let off the clutch it dies.It runs and idles fine in nuteral but dies as soon as I let off the clutch in first .Could someone please help .Thankyou

neutral gear sensor or kickstand sensor would be what i'd expect but i don't know the vulcans.
