Update...went into the dealer. They ordered a new unit. I told them I'd give a new one a shot, but if that screws up I expect a keyed gas cap replacement.

I did read somewhere that keyless fuel filler won�t open if you stop the engine using the emergency kill switch...

There are people who would love to have your bad days.

Not until you have cut the ignition after hitting the stop button. Otherwise unaffected

This is, in fact, not the case.

I always shut down motor with kill switch. Then I power down bike after I dismount.

If a short period of time elapses after powering down bike, you'll have to double-tap the cap release lever, provided key is still in range.

ALL of this info is in the manual
