I few months ago I just rebuilt my topend on my X1. It ran perfect after I rebuilt it. Then the shaft in my throttle body broke while I was still braking in the engine. So I ordered the replacement one from harley. After I installed it and started the bike up it ran horrible. It will idle for a little bit then shut off and when you give it gas it stumble then die. I put my old tps on the bike and it didn't help any. I put injector cleaner in it, check my plugs, all of my electrical hookups and still nothing. The fuel pump seems to be running strong to. So basically i'm stumped. I've had promblems with my buell dealer before so really don't want to take it to them unless I have to. So I was wondering if anyone had any advise to what it wight be. Any help would be greately appericated.

not certain how sensitive the tps sensor is, but perhaps its still a hair off... (due to mounting holes, mating surface etc.)
so doing a reset may solve the issue.
or it could be an intake leak...
but sounds more like a tps issue.

100% Sure it's wanting a TPS reset...no doubt.I just last month replaced my TPS after i broke the plug tangs removing it.It ran fine before,but crappy afterward.I reset the TPS (thanks FireboltEric for the VDSTS)and now it starts easier than ever before.It had NEVER been reset
