Hello Everyone

'05 R3 owner for a few years now, new to this site. I had done alot of reading here on the tps's, stepper motor, sensors, etc., looking for answers as my bike started having some issues with over-revving/idling too high intermittently and wanted to share my findings. Try this simple fix before you start hair pulling! The shaft that controls the butterfly dampers can get all gummed up, including the return springs, causing a slow closing action, if not getting all the way stuck on the way back. The real fix here is to remove the throttle body and clean it thoroughly, but after I saw all of the funk on the return springs, eureka! A little cleaner then some wd40 on all three springs and the butterfly shaft, without removing and voila! She suddenly turned back into the beast I fell in love with! Good luck everyone!!

Hello Judakai and welcome from Virginia. I am one of those with habitually dirty bikes, cleaning is not my strong suit. And that has cost me in the past. I am about to bring my bike offline for a few weeks to do a deep cleaning cycle.

I clean my bikes regularly on the outside, on the inside not so much.:rolleyes:
 
I had just beat my head against the wall on that one for a little while and a few bucks later, trying to save someone else from some bloody eyebrows, lol. I was actually fed up and removing the stepper motor when I saw the hang up.
 
WELCOME! to our forum and thanks for already making it better... :thumbsup: :cool:
