Alright well i started the bike up everything was good and it was a bit cool so it was taking a long time to warm up. The coolant temp didn;t even show up yet and i put it into first and put the bike back into my garage, but then all the sudden it cut out on me. How can i fix this!!! it was a dumb mistake by me and i am sure there is a way to quickly fix it. Now when i turn on my bike in the on position the light is still on and i try to start it but nothing happens.

HEEELLLPP!

Did you let the clutch out, or put the kickstand down while in gear. Both of those things would kill the motor. Or did you hit the kill switch. You have to turn the key to the on position, press the kill switch down, and then press the starter switch to turn the bike on. To turn it off you either press the kill switch up, or turn the key to the off position. I hope it is a real problem and not noob error.
