| Description of the problem | The throttle by wire connector hooks in behind the breather. Due to the hard turn of the connector going into the plug it bends the wires resulting in them breaking over time. This causes the motorcycle to lose throttle and go into limp mode causing me to very closely come to getting run over on the highway. It happened multiple times on the highway, turning. And on city streets. |
