2012 bmw s1000rr shutting off while riding

KevinER · 11-02-2020, 10:32 AM

My 2012 BMW S1000rr keeps shutting off while riding. Had it serviced last week they told me it was cause the HID headlights. Replaced one to stock and then unhooked the other from the battery. Got the battery tested everything is good. While riding it will shut off and then turn back on within 3 to 5 seconds. I then have to pull over shut the bike down and turn it back on. It will be good for a little bit but then shut off again. Has anybody had this issue or know what it can be?
Bike has around 16k miles.
I tried to attach an image of the codes I’m getting but don’t know if it posted.

I would suspect the kickstand switch. Known issue.

How was the battery checked?
Check all your grounds as well.
