Hey guys

Just after some guidance...

I have a Kawasaki ER6n 2012

Soon as i turn my bike on it can rev by itself, you can see the grip twisting itself. I'll try and snap it shut but sometimes it wont close all the way and it really fights me. then itll stay at about 2k the can randomly rev up again.

Then the engine management light turns on and it stops, rides normally. then after 10mins or so the engine lights turns off and straight away it starts doing it again until the light goes back on and everythings fine again (apart from the light obv).

any ideas?

Squishing some switch cleaner in the TPS might help

Ive had to accept defeat. Going into the shop Friday. I'll update once we've diagnosed the issue.

Poltergeist. You needs the services of a priest or a medium.

BCF is no use to you at all here.

Did you try to recalibrate your throttle position sensor? A quick google search listed quite a few sources on the topic. Might not be a failed TPS.
