I'm new so I'm not sure if this is in the right forum, but here's my question. I have a 2002 Triumph TT600 that I crashed. After the crash the bike would start but when put in to gear it immediately stalled and died. I took it to a mechanic and they said it was a simple adjustment that needed to be made, so they did it, charged me for an hour of labor, and sent me home. When I got home the clutch worked again, but after a few times taking the battery in and out to charge it, the clutch problem is happening again. Does anyone know what the problem is exactly and how I might be able to solve it? The mechanics and some friends of mine have both said it's a simple adjustment, but I don't know what to do. Thanks.

When you put it in gear and it dies, is the sidestand still down? This will kill most bikes..... saftey features

. Even if the stand is up when this happens, the switch that activates this shut-off my be playing up and causeing the bike to die.

Does the idle seem to be set very low now?
