2ND GEAR CUTTING OUT UNDER FULL THROTTLE

[simmo]

...have you checked the Knockover sensor.

Pardon my ignorance, but I'm interested in the location of this sensor? I looked in the parts pdf for gen2 but only found a fuel cut sensor that was near the ecu unless i was reading it wrong.

Sounds like gen2 could be different, on the gen1 its on the rhs just in front of the battery hanging underneath of the fuel tank bracket, the gen1 knockover sensor could also be a fuel cut out???
even if it was faulty it would not cause the bike to jump out of 2nd gear
