nut,
it might not be the rider
my "C"stalled a lot when i first got it ,even when i was at idle with the quad in neutral at a standstill
check the chain slack and tighten to factory specs
kick the idle up(it may sound like its idling too high but its o.k.)
keep your rpms up during riding(even at low speeds)
get the factory update on the stalling fix!!!(this makes a difference)i just had it done and it works
have you rerouted the fuel line from the fuel pump?(there is a bulletin on cannondales web site that references this problem)
good luck!

Thanks for the info, guys.
The chain slack is within specs and the fuel line is re-routed so those two things are ruled out too. I think my dealer may have adjusted the idle when I took it in a month or two ago, but he may have actually LOWERED the idle speed. (I don't really remember...) I guess I'll try to turn it up a bit.
