Since taking over my boets bike I've been riding it a bit and have noticed an intermittent electrical problem.
Now and then it cuts out and comes alive a split second later.
Almost like hitting the kill button for a split second. This happens at random be the bike hot or cold. If the bike is idling it usually dies but at speed it comesback to life andkeeps going. I have stripped the ignition and found nothing wrong, also checked the plugs at the rectifier and stripped and checked the fuse box. Next  step is the kill button but that seems to be fine. I noticed the rev counter also falls and comes back to life when  this happens. Come on dogs what could it be???
