Bike cutting out when put in gear **fixed**

My wee monster has been neglected for 8months so cleaned it up.. got a brand new battery & filled it up with petrol.
Started 1st go so yeeha i thought.... got my gear on & put her into 1st & *doof* bike cuts out.... this happened 4 times in a row. I already have the stand cut out bypassed so i thought there was an issue with that so i reconnected those cables but still no luck. I then read online that it could b the clutch plates stuck as bike sat 4 so long so i let it warm up & pumped the clutch & heard it move but that still didnt work.
After much head scratching i had a brain wave.. use the red key to start it.. maybe its the immobiliser! After searching i found it & wouldnt u know it didnt cut out when i put it in gear!!! Somehow the key i was using had stopped working! Hope this helps some1 in the future!
