Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) in Yamaha motorcycle · October 27, 2006

The problem

An improperly designed Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) could cause an intermittently unstable idle when the motorcycle is stopped or during low-speed operation. The engine could stall as a result. If the engine stalls after the operator disengages the clutch in a low gear while riding, the rear tire might slip momentarily if the operator abruptly re-engages the clutch. This could lead to loss of control of the motorcycle.
