sooo.. this happened for the first time today.
Rode the bike into downtown area.. short ride but also chocked it and warmed up for a bit before riding.. then once I got stuck on traffic, oil pressure light (next to 'neutral') light came on and stalled once I tried to start moving with the traffic.. (kicking the gear down to 1)
Stopped the bike in couple blocks and got off the check the oil and it was full..
rode away with no issue for the rest of the day and it happened again this evening after a short ride.. same thing. Stopped at traffic, bike idling, gear in neutral then once I try to get going, light comes on and stalls. Restart and no problem..

any idea what may cause this?

Engine oil changed before winterizing.. same synthetic 5w40.. just different brand and I changed the gas to 87 octane.. she used to drink the good stuff but gas price is kinda insane right now.
