Monster Being A Monster And Trying To Kill Me

Discussion in 'Monster' started by mattman, Aug 18, 2017.

  1. Need a bit of help here ,while accelerating throttle went wide open and stayed there !
    Pulled clutch and hit kill switch in time fortunately before me or bike suffered .
    Once home I checked throttle cable and butterflies all seems ok ,but on start up it goes straight to full revs again ....any ideas ?
     
  2. Oh forgot to mention it's a monster1100s
     
  3. Assume you've checked cable isn't trapped somewhere?
     
  4. Something stuck in the throttle butterfly or linkage?
     
  5. Have you done anything to the bike??
    Does the throttle snap back if you twist it and let go?
     
  6. Air leak??

  15. My 1198 used to do that, was caused by the wrong map. And the bike being jinxed to f***.
     
  16. TPS sensor?
