NC30 cutting out
My NC30 has recently developed a really annoying habit!!
If the bike has a sharp jolt, by going over a bump in the road, the engine will cut out
very briefly then come back on.
I assume its something to do with the ignition system but I'm a bit lost! I've stripped the fairing off and I have been checking connections and wiring but everything seems okay.
I can't get the bike to do it when its stationary, it will only do it when riding over a bump.
Does anyone know what could cause the engine to cut out totally? Its not just a missfire or dip in the revs.
Thanks for any help.

Re: NC30 cutting out
I more than likely suspect you have a loose battery terminal and nothing more...
Try checking them and report back.

Re: NC30 cutting out
That was my first thoughts as well, both terminals are tight

Check the earths especially the one under the seat from the battery dont just look at it undo it and make sure the connections are okay and give a wipe with wire brush or similar.
