I have a 2014 Ultra Limited in my trike shop. I put a rake kit in and when I put the fairing back on the bike would start but it would not accept throttle. What have I missed?

Well here it is your second post and you have already insulted someone! You either grow a thicker skin, or leave to never come back.

Your attention is invited to the Welcome Area mate, as it would be good to introduce yourself to the forum members: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/welcome-area-only-4/

Additionally, it is always a good idea to look over the rules of any forum you join: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/welco...ite-rules.html

While I do not condone the forum member's comment on your issue, it was only a comment and some members like to poke a new guy.

I would check the TBW connections if the bike is so wired, probably something simple like a disconnected harness plug.

If you are working on a Trike, posting in the trike section may get you more response. There is another site that you my want to visit specific to trikes: https://www.triketalk.com/forum/forum.php

Oh, and welcome to the forum. Cheers!

Recheck all the connectors. May want to unplug the throttle connection and plug it back together.

Good luck and welcome to the sight.

You have a shop, but you needed to come here to learn the basics?

The second post was correct, you screwed something up, go back and find it.
