it starts crackin' and popping at 1/4 throttle or so it is the throttle position sensor.Mine just took a shit.You can unplug to get by the weekend but the timing is off.

Otherwise the bike handles great now that I gots the right springs.If it had a throttle lock I'd eat a moon pie and drink a yeller dope and steer with my knees.

Throttle Position Sensor? I thought it had a carburetor? They put them on Carburetors as well?

and I bet your bike runs like shit when you crack the throttle under a heavy load. you need to TPS to help advance the spark when you crack it open.

Hell no dude, I run a 50/50 mix of Avgas and shine, bike runs like a drunken hillbilly from the law...

Honda is just trying to sell you shit you don't need.

"Twin pipes for better balance..." Suckers.

If you run 52 fork springs it lets you raise the forks in the clamps it the steering isnt quick enuff for ya,but them FIVE2's will let ya me smack 2 foot deep ditches I dig with my backhoe across my track for LL's training.You think bubbles has whoops?Let that wuss come hit my wheel crushers.The Flexbars are what makes it float like my 15" pecker in my hot tub.
