TPS adjustment
Sorry if this is redundant. I found no explination in searching, just references to TPS adjustment.
What is it? Benefits? Is it DIY-able? Thanks Pointy SVS in the States |

Hi, Its in the How to's in the original website - www.sv650.org, click how to's I tried it this weekend - got all the kit, took the seat off, tank up, pillion seat off, made my dealer tool, plugged it in, went to adjust the TPS and realised I only had a T25 torx, NOT security torx bit!!! Doh!!! Good luck with it, and let us know how you get on. Billy. |

Re: TPS adjustment
Ahhh... Throttle position sensor, that makes sense. I've only had the bike a few days so I'll look into doing that after the 600mi service. Sounds straightforward. Thanks!

Re: TPS adjustment
What benefits would TPS adjustment bring? I thought it was a kind of potentiometer that told the ECU how hard you've opened the throttle etc.
Please educate me

By default, you get a surge of power around 3000 RPM, moving the position of the TPS counters this. |
