I watched in horror as an oncoming rider stood his bike up in the middle of a tight mountain twisty and ploughed straight into the embankment on the side of road. He was hurt. When he was able to speak he told me the bike lurched all by itself.... there was a crampbuster on the throttle. He told...

Not this particular folk! PCiii and change of throttle cam definitely fixed the touchy throttle problem with my 2006. The problem you are having is not the same and I would agree a PCiii would not be a solution. I'm sorry I don't have anything to contribute to the problem discussed here, I...

You could just take it off when it gets really hot... depends on your local climate i suppose, here it is hot and generally little rain in the summer so the shield is pretty useless unless moving at greatish speeds. ;) nameless

2006 here. FWIW I had all kinds of troubles and doubts about the electrics in my 2006 last year (in 2009). I checked and theorised and blamed all kinds of things as the bike was displaying some very random starter behaviour on the original battery. I replaced the battery and problems went...

No wonder some of those Gen I's are fast... you can adjust CO and hey presto...five cylinders! nameless.

All the 'technique' in the world won't fix this problem on the 06. It's not you, it's the bike. And it's both auto and manual clutch models 06. So I'll say it again ! Go right ahead and get the PCIII, the throttle lurch on the 06 is a dog and the PCIII fixes it. The G2 tube helps a little...

Yep go right ahead and get the PCIII, the throttle lurch on the 06 is a dog. The G2 tube helps a little but you do need to remove most (not all) the cable slack otherwise the smaller radius section of the tube is already past by the time the cable is pulling at the throttle body. Get the...

That is incredibly similar to the experience I had last week with my 2006, except that I jump started it off a car battery. Also, the previous (cold) morning start was a bit sluggish. Later I took a look at the battery terminals and while I wouldnt say they were in poor condition they were...
