I have had the same thing happen about 3 times on my 1013 R3 (less than 200 miles).  I just thought it was me getting used to the the bike.  All bikes seem to have their little quirks.


So far I have noticed:

1 Stalling described above (popping the clutch kick starts it)

2 Serious "backing off" when downshifting and using the engine for breaking.  (Sounds really cool)

3 Kick stand sometimes catches in pant cuff at stop light.  (This kills the engine and makes you look stupid)

4 Clutch seems to engage a little abruptly moving up through the gears (Probably me getting the feel of the bike)

5 THE TORQUE!!!!
