My suzuki intruder 800 1993 starts fine. However, when I got to put it in first gear it immediately dies on me. Does anyone know what could be causing this?
Your kickstand switch is either broken or out of position. The bike kills the engine as a safety feature if it thinks the sidestand is down and the bike is put in gear while the engine is running.
You can cut the wire and by-pas the switch. Either twist the wires together or wrap electrical tape around the ends and keep them apart, whichever makes the engine not die.
Sounds corney, but take the end of the exhaust off then retry. A blocked baffle could cause that exact problem.
