monster 796 not starting in gear with kickstand up

Figured out what my problem was. The plug for the clutch switch that is behind the headlight came partially disconnected. Pushed it back together and everything functions normally now

Glad you got it sorted 

Thanks for posting the result.

Ugh.  i was gonna reply but it was corrected on the 2nd page... lol.  I was gonna say mine does it every once in a while but it is always the switch acting up on the clutch lever assembly.  Just let go of the clutch and re applying usually does it.

It happened to me three times. At a traffic light, bike stalled and couldn't start in gear. Had to put it in neutral first.

I thought something was broken, but turned out it was because I didn't pull the clutch lever (CRG lever) all the way so that the tab on the lever didn't touch/press the switch.

I tried at home, bike in gear, I pulled the lever all the way until it contacted the grip (to ensure the tab press the switch) and bike started. Tried several times and bike started every time.
