SOURCE: Shuts off

Brian, you have a system failure in your audio amp section. this is a multiple channel amplifier and you have to get it checked only by service personnel. your power outputs transistor probably busted and your unit wont stay because that is your protection circuit working. it protects your unit from further damage.

and for the other comment, your unit will shutoff after long epriod of time at 70%, you need more ventillation to your unit. i would suggest that you use a small fan or blower and place on top of the unit. this will provide more air circulation to your amplifier. The units is tripping already at high temperature and 70% is already a long way to go at more than an hour with all channels working. adwditional ventillation only will help you. dont let it happen though always or it will damage you amp and end up like the later unit that turns off after few seconds. busted output stage already.

SOURCE: Starter makes a ''clicking noise'' and doesn't turn over bike

batteries dead or dosn't have enough volts.try taking a jumper box and hooking it up if that dosn't work.then i would say its your starter silinoid.

The problem seem to involve a number of circuits, I would suspect the Key switch as it supplies power to all affected systems. The dieing on release of the clutch is usually the kickstand safety switch. If the kick stand is not up, and the bike in gear, then when the clutch switch detects release is kills the engine so you don't kill your self.
Check or replace these switches.

Hope this is of some help.
