I washed my 08 SG today. After drying off and blow drying all I could I started the bike. It cut out a few times and then ran ok. Later I started again and now the throttle is in limp mode. I have blown everything I can reach with air, took the grip apart and blew out more, still limp mode. Anything else I can do?

 

I found the problem, the plug to the PCV was wet, its ok now, hope I didn't do deeper damage. I won't be washing the bike again, not like the old 77 shovelhead, a lot more electronics on these bikes!

 

I don't know man, I wash my '08 Standard and have ridden in 3 hours of rain without that happening.

 

seen a few threads on this already mainly with the power commaders dry it out add some dielectric grease to the plugg and u should be good to go.

 

thanks I dried it, working ok now, I will do something to water proof the plug better...

 

lock 55 that dielectric grease is great stuff, and would have prevented the problem most likely.

 

i assume can get the grease at a auto parts store, or is that a harley thing?

 

you can get it at an auto parts store...I did
