Re: Well, it's not the battery...

Check the battery's amps and other little data numbers & we'll see. Sometimes when people replace them, they grab something cheap and/or too weak to save a dollar or two.

These things are finicky about the battery. You may have something as simple as a wiggly-loose connection. If you don't have solid electrical contacts, then all the juice that needs to flow can't flow, if that makes sense.

Gunk and varnish do develop under the kill switch, but your issues seems more intermittent, which would tend to make me think it's more likely just a loose connection somewhere. ...Either that or you have a stator that's staring to go bad, which is not common on this bike.

How many miles on the machine?
