His problem was with the DBW throttle control, your bike still uses cables, different problem.

WOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sean, are you talking about the plug that goes on the throttle body?

I would ask how ya been, but I can see.............LOL

Glad to hear everythings okay now

Sucks depending on what year. It seems to be in the 08-09 years at least from the archive threads I've got compiled on the infamous Limp Mode?
