I wonder if your gas cap isn't venting properly. Not sure how that works with a pressurize system but I'd think it must play a part. Or a fuel line that has got soft and collapsing. I'm not at all knowledgable on these fuel injected systems and the pressure(s) they need but I suspect something in there isn't working correctly. But hopefully one of our gurus will have an answer for you.

I'd be lost too Critter cause I never you that thing either. So I can see myself scratching my head as well. So I'm laughing at your expense. I'll get payed back just sure as shootin'. But it's funny.

Boy do I understand that. Trees literally rain down a fine mist that turns everything black after awhile. If you get in the right light you can see it on still morning. It's yucky. Makes you wonder how a tree can lose that much moisture and stay alive.

If you can, I'd keep it on a battery tender. It makes a world of difference on cold starts like that where the bike has sat for a while.

There are a few bikes like that Critter.
These new Indians are and so are some Harleys.
My Electra Glide being another.
But people tend to put them in that top gear way before they should.
I suspect there are a few others as well.

Pull and twist on the positive cable and buzzzzzzzz,
I think here is your problem. Something in or around that cable is breaking contact. I'd make sure the connection is clean and that when you tighten it that the screw isn't bottoming out and giving you a false sense that the connection is tight.
