I so wish we could "like" posts on this forum. I would have done that to your post AND still posted what I did. Shorthand for saying, you'r not stepping on my toes I just think the battery change is the original cause.

Sincerely thank you to all that replied. I’m new to the wing and I know forums Are a great place to find friendly help.
I don’t think I bumped the kickstand. My foot was resting firmly on the floorboard and I remember putting the kickstand down when stopped. The Bike ran great to and from work today. I’ll tighten up the battery terminals and hope for the best. I’ll be bringing it in the shop the end of fall, I can ask them to see if it threw a code.
If it happens again I would lean towards the crank position sensor . I seem to remember a few early F6Bs and 12 up Wings that had crank position sensor failures. Any one remember what the code was?
Sorcerer - For the MIL blink codes? Looks like 18 for camshaft sensor, 19 for ignition pulse sensor.

Did the bike sit for a long period of time before you bought it? I’ve never had this problem with my wing but my 2008 Boulevard would stall while decelerating. Turns out I wasn’t riding much and the ethanol gas began to break down and I had water in my tank. Now I always make sure to use non-ethanol gas with a stabilizer when I store the bike for the winter or when I know it’s going to sit for long periods of time.
Good luck and ride safe!
Crank sensor should throw a 19 flashes code (1 long flash = 10 + 9 shorts =19). It was hard to start a few times, turn the key off, back on, it would start. I finally spotted the code after a few times & got it fixed, no problem since. Be sure to look for the amber flashing code light. There's a thread on here as to how to read the codes..... I love these computers, they're so much smarter than I am ..LOL
Please refer to this thread for more information!
There are 2 sensors and the 6 injectors, any of which can shut the engine down in order to save the motor...
