I gave up and focused on getting a good idle, then the best I could do was the bar to jump to the middle at 2k and top at 4K.
Also while moving the TPS **sometimes the RPMs would suddenly just shoot up to 6K and stay there**. I'd have to kill the ignition to stop it. I'm only moving the TPS a fraction of a millimeter, not sure where I am going wrong.
Mine is a 2006 California model if that makes a difference...

change the plugs. sounds like the bike is cutting in and out on a cylinder. the line staying a the bottom is an indication that your only firing on one cylinder.
suddenly shooting up to 6k would to me say a loose connecting in the ignition system like a loose plug cap or a plug that is breaking down or a coil is on its way out.
