Default Electric Throttle

I have a 2011 road king classic. I got 16 inch wild1chubbys installed. When I hit a bump it's like I keep accelerating. Is there a way to stop that?

Best check it out, know a fella who changed bars, fired it up and it went wide open, seems one of the wires had broke if I remember correctly.

It's a small acceleration from me holding the throttle. It's like it's too sensitive.

It sounds like your controls are set up so that you have less control over the bike now.

are there any adjustments you can make?

my throttle is not overly sensitive...feels about the same as my other bikes

I'm not sure that's why I'm asking if I can.

I mean physically adjust the angle of the bars, or the controls on the bars so that the weight of your arm isn;t pulling the throttle
