Went to the dealership this morning since i had the day off, parts came in today just before I got there. It is the entire throttle body they're replacing, but it's just based on their troubleshooting steps. They didn't open up my old one like my tuner has done in the past to find the water/corrosion under the cover. So hopefully this is the issue and I'll have to assume there was moisture in there like has been found in others in the past.

Well, throttle body wasn't the problem. Not sure what Harley's troubleshooting process is for the issue, but if they keep throwing $500 parts at it and then find a wire in my bars rubbed through and tell me I've got a $2000 bill not covered under warranty, I'm gonna be livid.

Dealer just called, apparently it was the ECM. Now I guess we'll see if they try and slip out of warranty coverage due to the power vision tune when I go pick it up in a few days.
