Yup, TPS. I’ll take the tank off and check connections.

It’s got to be just a plug in, rather than a component failure.

I think it unlikely that the APS ( apparently it’s not a TPS) is faulty. It’s an Accelerator Position Sensor. Most likely a connection I reckon. It quit once more on my way home. Thankfully I coasted into a parking lot where it rectified itself again. And thankfully I got across the Patullo Bridge ok.
I got home and plugged in my code reader. Sure enough, APS error. A bit of a process to get at it. All kinds of different fasteners to remove 5 plastic panels in order to lift the tank before disconnecting the fuel pump electrics, fuel line, and vacuum lines. Then the APS is right there. I disconnected the two plugs (they looked fine) and sprayed on some de-oxidizer.
Reassembled and rode uptown to the library. Short ride but all good. Think I’ll not go out on the highway or across any bridges for a while.

So, I took the Tracer900 out for a 1 3/4 hr ride this morning. Rode around Belcarra, Anmore, Buntzen Lake. The Yamaha didn’t miss a beat. Perhaps (

I’ve taken the Red Pig out of slumber, to analyze vibration feedback after extensive engine modifications. Ummm, I changed the spark plug. The engine still gives off indications that it is running . So that’s good,,,,,,,plus I just put a fresh battery in my Omega, so there’s that I guess.

Forecast for tomorrow, Wed Jun 20/23 is for rain. Thursday is looking much drier - any interest in moving coffee to Thursday this week?
