I stalled mine several times in the first few months of owner ship this spring as well.

It does take time to restart due to having to ign off first.

Takes a bit of getting used to and after 4 months its starting to feel very good now.

The shifts are flying faster and smoother every week and mostly a few fingers is better than a fist full of knob. (That sounds wrong when I read it )

Also splashed some fuel one time as well.

Installing new front brake pads tomorrow and completing my brake fluid flush (Did not know about the 2nd bleed valve) and associated video to post on these forums.
