Drove my '04'supercharged rocket home last night. 240 miles on motorway grinning right up till the M1 turnoff . . when I rolled the throttle off for the roundabout. Revs stayed at about 2500-3000, until I pulled clutch in to slow down. Understand this may be crankshaft sensor (checked and was spotlessly clean). Now going to have to buy a TPS to try that. Anyone got any other ideas? Also would like to find an experienced midlands based tuner with rocket knowledge to try sort it out; not a big fan of dealers - they are at work to make maximum money
 
Welcome to the forum.

Sounds like you've some ideas as you mention the TPS. If you got the bike home, get a cable from Lonelec, download the TuneECU software and run some diagnostics. Good luck.
 
wd 40 all the return springs before u start roll open the throttle and let it snap back a few times.
+1 on spraying the stepper motor and flipping on ign a couple of times to let it work.
do throttle cables have slack?

WELCOME!
Engine cut-out at near closed throttle was a huge PITA. Twas SOLVED WITH a new TPS. Started again two day ago and I was pissed! Cooled off after discovering my battery ground was loose.
 
oooh very nice bike, I had been keeping an eye on it while it was for sale. Whays it go like with the supercharger on it compared to your busa?
