First ya gotta tell us what it is? \\; model? \\; year? \\; Fuel Injected? TBW? Throttle cables? \\; What's the question?????
 \\;
Is your thumb screw backed out? \\; Are the cables hangin up? \\; When's the last time you lubed the cables or throttle sleeve?
 \\;

Sharon,
The list of possibles gets a bit long due to your 2007 scoot being newer systems. \\; Given that you are under warranty and the critical safety issue, suggest you get er safely to the dealer for warranty-covered fix. \\; And have them tell you what it was. \\; Ride safe!
2007 Heritage Softtail Classic \\; Fuel injection. \\; \\; Thumb screw okay, Trottle Cables okay, Trottle sensor okay. \\; According to the mechanic no code was showing up. \\;
kink in cable someplace, weak return spring, throttle plate not \\;centered in throttle body correctly, throttle plate shaft binding and my favorite your fingerless gloves are not letting you release the hand throttle fully
Is it a case of the throttle not returning all the way? \\; See if you can turn it back any more. \\; Mine does it a bit but it's because I have the throttle return (star wheel) set stiff.

I'd have him check the throttle position sensor again despite the fact there are no codes. \\; The throttle position sensor screws have a tendency to back out and cause this problem. \\; My '07 has been taken back 3 times so far to address this.

Possible above,,could be the IAC sticking (Idle Air Control), possible throttle cable bind, cable adjuster lock nut loose and or throttle cables out of adjustment, to name a few. If still in warranty get it to the dealer.
