Last weekend, while attempting to get home, the bike quit in the middle of traffic. I have been battling the wiring issues that are apparently common on these bikes by applying die electric grease to the terminals to aid with the fretting issues. This particular situation resulted in the wires actually melting. The 6th black / white terminal melted and created an open circuit, throttle went into limp mode and I was forced to traverse heavy traffic to get over to the break down lane.
Does anyone have a forever fix for this never ending throttle wiring issue?
I need to re wire the throttle circuit and have received different opinions, some stating that installing a slightly longer jumper harness will result in excessive resistance which may lead to an abnormal frequency that locks the throttle wide open. This was my daily ride now I've been forced to ride the V-Rod or stuck in a cage.
