• Ciao Guest, The owner of this website and GTMotoCycles.com lost his home completely on the morning of January 8th in the L.A. Wildfire Storm. Most of his neighborhood is gone, and a few friends were killed along with their pets. The GTM SHOP and STORE are functioning normally, but we DEMAND EXTREME PATIENCE on orders as we are a SMALL business and Todd usually has his hands on nearly every order before it goes out.

Hello,

My 2015 V7 started doing this last Sunday (video link attached). I pulled the battery for a bit and was able to get it to start and idle normally again but I'm curious about what would cause this to happen? I'm not completely sure if pulling the battery is what corrected the idle issue. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

When was your last service and TP
As far as oil changes I've done them myself after I bought the bike when it had about 800 miles on it. The previous owner had the bike's first service done at GP Moto in San Diego and I believe they might of reset the TPS on it's first service. Does the TPS need to be reset at each maintenance interval?

Thanks!

It is a good idea to do a TPS reset annually. The TPS is basically just a variable resistor and the values given can drift over time.
