I experienced my first time in the heat managment mode in lower Manhatten sunday. Bike idled like crap but never stalled. But I did keep the revs up a tad when letting out the clutch
it stalled out while in neutral.you probably know north ave in elizabeth?off 1&9 heading towards the parkway.goes from 2 down to 1 lane and cages that don't give anyone a break

I know LOOKERS is on North Ave in Elizabeth
Sounds like you might have other problems

I have had my o6 for a month now, already have over 1k, the temps here have been in the hundreds (yes you read that right 101 and above) I have never seen the heat management kick in. I know it is hot because of the ever present burning sensation on my right inner thigh. We are a mile high here, and as such the system seems to run slightly rich. I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not. In my opinion there is something wrong if the bike runs in the misfire mode at 80.
