So my bike is broke,

I was comming back on base from lunch, mcdonalds, and i notice my throttle sticking, so i stop at the gate, show my id, and go on nmy merry way until all of a sudden, 10 ft from the gate, it dies. So i get off, look at the trottle cables etc, take off the air filter and what do i see. The throttle plate for the throttle body, has a shaft behind it just like a car, and some how, im missing about a 1/4 inch of it somewhere. No knocking etc in the engine or anything, so im hopping it went in and out. But tomorrow i have to order a new throttle body, adn take apart the heads to see if there is any damage.


and apaprently its commonplace with buells

Yet another american made item that breaks more than imports
