I recently purchased a '95 EX500 and have had zero problems with it until I went outside just now to go for a ride and the bike stalls as soon as I put it in first gear. I'm not talking a clutch not engaging stall where the bike jerks forward, but the engine just shuts off instantly. What on earth could be causing this?

 

neutral safty switch on the kick stand prolly went out.

 

kick stand down when your putting it into first? oh and welcome to the forum.....

 

Fixed the problem. There was a blown fuse (bottom right one, i forget what it was relating to) and I replaced it.

 

cool man if find out what the fuse went to let us know. I'm curious to see what it was and it might help someone in the future with the same prob.
