riding 2nd great about 30 mph thinking about going into 3rd when it sputters like its running out of gas. I reach down and flip reserve. at the same time pull the clutch and give it a bit of throttle. not luck it dies. I push it off the road. gas is fine. oil is fine. I return the reserve lever to main tank. it starts right up. 5 min later same thing. I pull the clutch give it gas. it still fails. I pull over and it starts right up. this is a bran new bick with only 25 miles on it. any suggestions ae welcome. Please reply to my Email.
