I'm not sure how this applies but one of the things my dealer cautioned me
about was using the kill switch and running out of gas.  He said that if I
ran out of gas it would confuse the ECU and that prior to trying to restart
the bike I should turn the key on and off several time, leaving it on for
5-6 seconds each time.  He stated that this would help the ECU recalibrate
and would help to eliminate any serious starting or initial running
problems. He did caution that there might be some initial problems in
performance and that it would be smart to ride it for about 5 minutes, stop
and start again.
You guys probably know all this!!
