Default recall? twist grip sensor(tgs) sticky throttle

Curios if anyone has had these replaced as part of a service bulletin, though the bike may be out of warranties period.Seems harley would be all over this issue, as it's unsafe to operate the bike like that.

Can you supply some more info here? Did you mean to include a link? Is there a recall or a bulletin you are aware of? Or are you inquiring if there is one? Have you personally had a problem? If so, please share what happened.

sorry inquiring if there were any recalls concerning this sticky throttle. I went and had mine changed this am, dealer took it right in, changed it out, my scoots a 2010 so I paid the tab.When I asked for the old one back, they said sure we have a pile of bad ones here.I think mines been progressing over time and you just compensate as you ride, I did find this spring I was on, and off the throttle a lot more then usual, blamed it on the cam change I did over the winter, blamed it on the tune being off with the cam swap, been messing with the tuner for 3 months. Fueled the bike and did a quick 125 mile loop, part throttle is clean and progressive, wont be surprised if the fuel mileage jumps back up.
