I bought a 2016 Ninja 300 ABS as my first bike a month and a half ago. I bought the bike with 1 mile and currently have 348 miles on it. On one of my rides during my first 100 miles while downshifting to a stop on a very small downward grade my bike just shut off when going from 2nd to 1st. I coasted about 10- 15 ft to a complete stop, pushed my start button, continued riding. Figured maybe I was not "rev Matching" correctly or something.
Today I went for a ride with a buddy and put about 100 miles on it, all backroads through the mountains on Connecticut. This same dying of the bike when going from 2nd to 1st while downshifting for a complete stop happened 3 times in this ride. It isn't a violent, shake or buck of the bike when it shuts off. To me it seems more like what happens if you put the kickstand down while its in gear. I blip the throttle and work through every gear 9/10 when I stop.
Tip over sensor maybe too.....?!?
I did install an M4 Slip On about a week ago. Maybe not enough back pressure and low idle while stopping causes the shutdown?!?
Would love any input on this while I continue to search the web. Much love and thanks!
