Bought my bike back in last week in may. Since then I have had the Throttle by Wire replaced and going home last night it went out again. right at 1000 miles 2 throttles. Has anyone experienced this and what the F is causing this. My only saving grace was the dealer came with trailer to get me and took me home which really surprised me.
 
they called me back just now. the throttle body went out. is this normal that I have a throttle by wire go bad and 1 month later the throttle body go bad?

Is the throttle body the stock Harley unit or an aftermarket unit.
 
well bro I don't know. when I bought it was already done with 103 big bore kit and 255 cams. see when I took it in last time for same issue they said they couldn't find anything wrong but TBW. and now they say body out. I am assuming it is stock. what is life of one anyway?
 
At that rate its most likely stock. I know in 2007-2009 a particular aftermarket supper had defective TB units. Being it is stock I really can't point you in a satisfactory direction. Sorry I could not help Brother
 
its all good. just sucks that we finally get some good weather and it does this. was at a Big Brother event last Saturday just happy it didn't break down then...
