In your case..yah, you might wanna check the two wire connector next to your clutch lever frontal part (no DIY required as u can see that its just two connector)..just make sure they it in properly. Can sometime be accidentally come off due to meddling around that area.

 

Your case may be an actual fault. It all has to do with "safety" as with regards to engine off when in gear components. There are cases when one put in netural..the engine dies and it's caused by a neutral switch sensor inside under the engine (engine oil have to come off to get the sensor sitch replaced) area. Your case may be another switch or sensor that supposing detect side stand down and in relation with clutching in circuitory. In this case, could be a faulty switch (sidestand not triggering it), the sensor to circuitry for engine cut off or just a back wiring connection due to rainy wetness road grind and dirt.

 

I don't do the rectification but somewhat help in 'fault finding' and solution suggestion for possiblities so that u won't kenna chop chop with things that is not necessary to replaced. For this, you can go find Ah Fook at Industrial Park 2 to have a second opinion (free lah..just say I send u) or any other trust worthy mototiam of yours.

 

Do keep the rest update here of your rectification so that we can all learn here.

Not so sure my handling feels pretty bad even after i repaired my fork and change bearing. Feels kinda lose and it seems to feel quite uneven. Its feel tilted slightly to the left. Not really much of an expert in this coz only got my s4 last yr bought 2nd hand not sure wat happen to the bike before i became its owner.

Clean chain and rim both i use kerosene. Does not harm o ring. When on paint(rim) make sure to mix with water or soap and rinse off quickly with plenty of water. Else will eat into paint.
