Default 2003 883 sportster

883 cuts off after a short ride then it won't start up again until I turned the key switch off then back on. It's like it just dies while I'm running.

IF I had to guess, I'd say it's the switch.

How many keys are on your keyring?



No, really...

I only have one key. I had the coil checked by the dealership. They said that it wasn't breaking down. They had it for a couple of weeks and couldn't get it to cut off. Brought it home and it cut off as soon as I pulled into the driveway. About a 5 mile ride.
