After trying: 1) wiggle the wires ("you're all set now); 2) change the coil ("try it now, see you in two weeks"); 3) Change the ECM (made the NEW bike they took it out of run "poorly").

So the bottom line was that the ECM with 2,100 miles failed. Any one else have that problem?

Electrical components do fail sometimes. Heat related issues are some of the most difficult to reproduce, and yours sounds like it was heat related. It is good you good it fixed under warranty.

I hope you have a good one now, it should run forever.
