So I started a tps and will purchase a tps but almost every sensor from head temp idle air sensor to crank sensor could be the culprit! I hope I get lucky too! If not I'm going to have a lot of new sensors and a lot of back up sensors. I guess thats what I get for putting 65,000 mile on an 07. Some time I feel like a guinie pig at the dealers because I get a lot of blank stares due to how new and how many miles I have.

I bought my bike new,I always figured the more miles the better, at least we are enjoying the hell out of our rides. lol If it is doing the same as mine was then I'm confident it's the tps. Check it first with an ohms meter before you buy one. Let us know how you made out.

DUDE MidLifeCrisi thanks so much! That 28 dollar sensor fixed it. I guess I ride in the rain too much because the TPS sensor had rusty water in it. Fired her up and idled fin. I guess I will never know why I had 3 failiers in one week.
