Description of the problem	Motorcycle accelerated to full throttle at a stop causing me to have a severe accident. I was "walking the clutch". Light had turned green before i came to a stop. I had 1. 5 car lengths between myself and the car in front of me. The bike took off, first reaction was to swerve to the right to not hit the car in front. I kept holding the break but the throttle would not stop. When i was on the ground the bike was still in full throttle even without anything obstructing the throttle. I almost died, broke several bones, my hip, knee, tibia. Recently i came across someone who experienced the same problem multiple times. He said harley davidson just gave him a different bike since they could not determine the problem. He told me all this before i told him what happened to me. I know there is something wrong with the electronic throttle in those motorcycles causing them to accelerate spontaneously.
