Hi there, My 1200GS does not re-start while in gear typically in a "stall" situation. I need to stop, put it in neutral and only then it will start. On slow technical terrain this is a frustration. Somebody pointed to a "clutch sensor" that can be adjusted? Help/advice would be appreciated.

Inside your left handlebar unit where the clutch lever is, is a little microswitch. When you pull in the clutch (with the motor off, and your ear pressed against the unit) you should hear it click softly. Just open up the unit and find the switch and see why it isn't activating.

Hallo Jaco, ek ondervind dit ook op my fiets . As ek die clutch met net 2 vingers trek ,maak die sensor nie kontak nie . As ek dit egter met die hele hand trek, tot by die handvatsel dan start hy . Kyk ook onder die clutch lever is n klein plekkie vir n allan key , speel so bietjie daarmee en kyk of dit nie beter raak nie .
