Was the FI light flashing after the tip over? The tip over switch will kill the engine until the key is cycled off and on.....I can speak from personal experience, since it happened to me while demonstrating ERC exercises. I had the bike leaned over far enough in a double S turn to trigger the switch, and it killed the engine right there...right in front of the class.....

Tipped bike over last night trying to pick up someones iPhone I found laying in the street (last time I try to be nice!), and wouldn't start after that until a friend jumped it with his bike battery. He informed me that sometimes tipping your bike over can ruin an old battery. Is this true?

I don't mind spending a bit more cash for a reliable battery. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions for a good replacement battery?
