Third time occurrence of an intermittent no-start. It seems to happen, if it happens, when on the side stand. I get a no-start, strong turn-over of motor, then one long followed by nine short flashes (error code 19) of the MIL (engine problem light). I move the bike around the parking lot off the side stand, or put it up on the center stand, turn the key on-off a few times, then the MIL light goes out as normal and the motor starts normally.
The service manual says its a loose connection or sensor for the crank position indicator (CKP) that runs from left side sensor up the right side through a 2P connector (color = natural/tan, I think).
I'll probably run to hard failure unless someone has recommendations based on experience with the same or similar failure pattern. It's still under warranty, I think, and it's only a $50 part if it is the sensor itself. Wiring harness T/S & R/R, and of course plastic removal/replacement, will probably be the pricey parts.
Feedback anyone?
OBTW: It hasn't left me stranded yet. I simply outlast the intermittent nature of it so far. It's still better than most other bikes I've had over the years.
