“The part that is causing this problem is a known software problem on the bike and it is very dangerous. The bike is stalling and cutting power while I am riding or at a stop, it seems to be random.

This machine will also stall on first start 99% of the time and has been getting worse. Seems the stalling issues are related, because the stalling while riding did not happen until the stalling on start up started first. …”
