Re: twitchy throttle on '03

My '03 had the same problem.  It appears they are just mapped that way.
Since my SV is for the track also, where I don't want to have to concentrate
on a twitchy throttle, I added a Power Commander, remapped, and the problem
is gone.

Subject: twitchy throttle on '03

Hi there... I just bought an '03 SV with 150 miles (!) to use mostly as a
trackbike.  My girlfriend used to have an '02 SVS, and it had a really
notchy on-off point on the throttle.  I figured with the EFI on the '03,
this behavior would be gone, but if anything its worse!

Its not being ham-handed, either.  At the transition spot on the throttle, I
can brace my hand such that I'm providing practically zero input, and the
power surges on/off in a really unpredictable and unpleasant manner.

I hoped that maybe it was due to the fact the previous owner let the bike
sit around without any Stabil in the tank, but I've run a few tanks of
Techron through, without any improvement.

I searched the archives, but only found mention of the problem in the
carburetted versions.  Is there a solution for the EFI bikes, or is my bike
probably having some other problem?

Thanks,
