Left the house tonight with a full tank of gas, what I thought was a well-serviced bike...
Noticed riding that the bike was definitely down in acceleration, wasn't missing or anything, but just didn't feel 'right'. About a mile from the house I turned around and started to head back...and the bike died at the corner. Dead. Lights all on, but no starter...and something smelled hot....maybe electrical hot.
Won't crank. Doesn't make a sound when you hit the start button (lights dim, that's it).
After waiting an hour+ for the roadside assistance tow truck (included in our insurance), I gave up and pushed the bike a mile back home. :bang head:
'07, still in warranty. Fun times.
