I do not know about all the other bikes out there, but my Shadow WILL NOT go without stalling UNLESS you start out in 1st gear. PERIOD! That is how i stalled it. Was stopped at the light, thought i was in first, but was in second. Stalled the bike, could not get it started again. I COULD have pulled in the clutch and MOVED the bike, but could not start it again until it was in Neutral. Just had an emotional meltdown that day, and did not think straight, just panicked! LOL! Today's rides were fantastic, we stayed out about 2 hours or more. It was great! Definitely the best part of the day. Really gave us some alone time to have fun and get out before having to come home and spend the rest of the day dealing with family problems. (YUCK!) Will ask DH about Shadow starting in gear, but I do NOT think it will. More later............
