    Have a 2011 TE449. Runs great and starts great but when I take my finger off the start button the motor shuts down. It was intermittent at first but is a permanent condition now. Any suggestions?

    You might post this question in the Italian 4 stroke section, not the Austrian 2014 and newer section. The 449 experts are hanging out there, not here.

    My suggestion is, assuming that by "motor" you actually mean engine (if the motor - the starter motor - shuts down when you release the button, that's a good thing) that you go crazy with a test light or meter...Perhaps the running ignition relay has failed (if it has one).

    Kill Switch either needs replaced or a good cleaning. Common on the BMW G450X also.
