The dealer thinks this maybe the prob on my S4r as i got this weird slipping thing going on, the throttle pulls but nothing happens sometimes.

I think it tells the efi where the throttle is if its broke or adjusted wrong bike runs badly am i correct?

Thanks in advance

Nice pic Antonye

Yep, we had this on the DD bike. Think a new one was about £150 and it needs setting up with diagnostic equipment or something. I dunno, I'm just a pilot.

Changed the TPS on the T8 earlier in the year,the TPS was tell the CPU that the throttle was wide open even when it was closed,resulting in the injecters chucking fuel in!Good job it didn`t start really,would have blown the cases as the engine filled with fuel!

It was looked at today finally and they reset the TPS and adjusted the fuelling again as the akrapovic can they never done before, richened it up.

After testing all appears well no slipping yet, runs much better lower down

Test rider did mange to lose me barend mirror lol.
