mine did that and I'd reset it and it would do it again, turned out the plug wire was not completely snapped down on the spark plug.

Best part is were it not for this place it would have been a trip back to the dealer.

Yes it was the rear plug. I must have losened it when I was cleaning it on Sunday because It started on monday on the way to work. So I must have screwed up cleaning the bike. Thanks for this site I don't write often but always read things from here no matter how meny bikes I work on I always learn from other people's info.
