Cut out

Hi guys

I love my Ten but I also have the cut-out issue. I've had it happen twice today, this morning when it was sunny and dry and coming home this afternoon in heavy showers. Sometimes, it leaves me in a precarious position and I need to get moving very quickly or I'll be in trouble. Will try the tick-over adjustment too. I've just wondered if the Kev Mod makes any difference to this and if using higher octane fuel might have an effect? Does my MTC can have an effect on the bike cutting out?

Also, does anybody else have a sticky ignition? My key only turns the bike on if I turn it half a turn back and then slowly into the on position.
