I use my dl 650 2012 with 20k on a daily basis and yesterday without further notice it sputtered twice quickly then died.... On a major highway while passing a vehicle I would have been toast. Any idea as to what it is?? The f1 indicator light goes on only after cranking it a few times and the red light does not blink as per the manual...help
:frown2:

I don't suppose you could have run out of fuel. If it cranks, the battery is supplying power. There are a lot of things that can contribute to the engine quitting. Lack of fuel and lack of spark are the two most common issues.

That's very rare unless somebody tried electric welding on the bike with the ECM connected. Did you swap with another bike and the problem travel to the other bike? That's the best check method.
