BMWc400x keeps cutting out

Hi. My BMWc400 I've noticed that every time I go over a bump or a gradient it starts to jerk and feels like it once to cut out. It did a couple of times. One. Going over a speed hump very slowly and another when I was reversing it down a small gradient and it cut off. I suspect it's has something to do with my central stand. I think it cuts of the engine when it gets a slight angle. I have my bike booked for bodywork repairs in next week so I will ask the mechanics at BMW to have a look. Does anyone know what could be the cause or experience anything similar. Would really help me. Thanks 👍🏽
 
I would suspect the side stand, rather than the CS, since the side stand has a switch. Some people disable the side stand switch and I've done that before on other bikes but not on this one. Doing that seemed more logical on previous adventure bikes I've owned.

Bank angle sensor perhaps? I don’t have the manual yet; maybe called an IMU or X Axis IMU? Perhaps something else all together. Could be as simple as a loose fuse or battery connection.

Update. Just took it in to BMW to get repaired, and they have found the issue to be the fuel injector. Luckily it's still under warranty so it's will be free of charge.

Very good news. They should have those parts in stock for a quick fix!
