So here's how I netted out:

Had a call with LZD, the Shanghai Jialing Quarterback who helps a lot of us out on a myriad of JH600 issues. (Note: LZD is not a Jialing employee). He reported that the bike runs, but this doesn't mean it's fixed. In order to fix a broken bike you need to know what the problem is. He said that they weren't able to discover/isolate what caused my bike to 1. Difficulty Starting 2. Loss of Power 3. Cut-outs

- Mechanic Fan worked his way thru the wiring off the fuel pump relay to suss out why/where the fault was.
- He confirmed that the fuel pump is working fine.
- The bike now starts/runs, but issue remains a mystery.

I'll go pick it up after work today and have a test ride. I will hopefully know more when I speak to the mechanic, but for now it seems that without solving the problem, there's no confidence that these symptoms will not come back.

To be continued.....
