Installation
1. Lubricate the sensor 'O'-ring with a smear of
petroleum jelly.
2. Insert the sensor to the throttle body at the angle
shown below then turn it anti-clockwise until the
screw hole aligns with the thread in the throttle
body.
1. Sensor Insertion position (dolled line)
2. Sensor Initial filled position (solid line)
3. Insert the Torx screw to secure the throttle
potentiometer, but do not fully tighten the screw
yet.
4. Refit the throttle bodies as described on page
11.123.
5. Temporarily reconnect the battery, positive (red)
lead first.
6. Connect the diagnostic tool and scroll through to,
and select the 'ADJUST TUNE' option.
7. At the next screen, align the cursor with
THROTTLE POT RENEW (see below) then press
the validation key which is marked "'.

8. On pressing the validation key, the diagnostic
tool will send a command, which drives the
primary throttle to the fUlly closed position. The
tool will also display the voltage reading coming
from the throttle position sensor.

9. Gently rotate the new throttle position sensor
until the voltage reading on the tool shows 0.6
volts +/- 0.02 volts.
Note:
• This is a setting voltage only. Because of
the adaptive nature of the engine
management system, in-service voltage
may vary from this setting figure.
10. Tighten the sensor retaining screw to 3.5 Nm
and recheck the voltage reading shown on the
tool. Repeat the adjustment if the reading is
outside the specified range.
11. Press the validation key marked ,., to return the
throttle to normal control and return the
diagnostic tool to the ADJUST TUNE menu.
12. Disconnect the diagnostic tool.
13. Disconnect the battery negative (black) lead first.
14. Check that the throttle opens and closes without
obstruction/sticking and has a smooth action
throughout the full range of its movement.
Rectify as necessary.
Operation of the motorcycle with an incorrectly
adjusted throttle position sensor, or a throttle
position sensor that causes the throttle to stick could
result in loss of throttle control. Loss of throttle
control could result in loss of control of the
motorcycle and an accident.
Operation of the motorcycle with an incorrectly
adjusted, incorrectly routed or damaged throttle
cable could interfere with the operation of the
brakes, clutch or the throttle itself. Any of these
conditions could result in loss of control of the
motorcycle and an accident.
