Yeah, that would be a pain, especially scary while on an interstate. I'm sure Chief will be on here later to give some advice too. He has more experience than I do. But I would start at the kickstand. Maybe it has a little play there that causes the temporary shut down.

I'll check it out...........maybe a loose connector or something. Funny thing is it just shuts off on the smooth interstate going 70 too.  It does it at lease 1 time everytime I take it out. A real pain in heavy traffic. Might be good to change the switch, huh?

I have an '04 1500. The bike starts and runs fine 98% of the time.  The problem I'm having is  engine stops running suddenly and unpredictably at any speed or driving condition. I have to coast to the side of the road and turn the ignition switch off and then on again and the bike starts instantly and runs fine e engine control module? When the engine shuts off all the idiot lights come on and I still have full electrical functions on the bike while it's coasting. It will not restart while coasting even if I pull in the clutch, downshift, and release the clutch in gear.
