Engine cutting out

    Hi there

    I have encountered an unusual problem with my 05 roadking custom (injected).

    Two sundays ago went riding, did about 60-70 klms of easy riding, nice lunch an home again.

    Monday morn it fires up for work ,all is going well.Then 2klms from home the engine just cuts out ,no warning. As I coast to a stop I let the clutch out and

    presto motor refires and all is good again.The bike ran faultlessly for the rest of the week.

    This sunday just gone we did 450 klms of moderate to exhilirating riding, bike runs like a train all day. Monday morn comes around again and the bike starts

    impeccably again, but this time I get 4klms to work B4engine cuts out,  again with no warning. Same drill as last time the  engine re-fires and runs fine to work.

    Took it to dealer they checked for "obvious" faults loose battery connections etc but find nothing wrong. They told me it hadn't shown any fault codes.

    On both occasions tank was full to half full, only mods to bike are s/eagle mufflers an air cleaner kit. So either the bike has started to hate mondays as much as

    me or /// well I just don't know whats happening. Has anyone any clues on this??

    Thanks for reply Scotty, and do you know approx cost of TPS and

    if it was this, would it have shown a fault.

    Thanks from
