Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was riding home on my 2005 yamaha fz6 motorcycle, when the engine began idling very rough. i had to roll on the throttle to keep the engine from stalling. then a few seconds later i pulled in the clutch and the engine stalled completely. i was not able to restart the engine after 4 attempts. then i turned the ignition off, and turned it back on, and the engine started as if there was no problem. obviously, turning the ignition off and back on is merely a band aid for this issue, and not a permanent solution. please refer to this website to learn of other fz6 owners that have experienced this issue. http://forums.sportbikes.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7320 *jb
