Bike cutting out

[AppleJoe]

Recently by bike has been cutting out while riding along. It always happens when I'm approaching traffic lights, pull the clutch in to coast the last few meters, then the engine just goes.

Any ideas as to what, if anything, is wrong with it?

I thought it could be the cold, but when I start it up I leave the choke on enough so that it can just sit there ticking over without the choke on, and this is often after 5-10 minutes of riding.

Are you saying it starts again almost immediately?

check your air filter is clean
check plug gap
check breather pipes
don't fiddle with carbs until you've checked everything out 1st

Some Hondas do this and it has been found to be the ECU that needs resetting.

I had this happen to me on the blade. Just increased the idle and it cured the problem. I checked for all the obvious things - side stand switch etc. The idle was somehow set at ZERO.. so i had to constantly blip. It was the first time i had a fuel injected bike so i didn't know how the cold start went.
