Good Morning All. I've got over 20k miles on my Heritage. About 5-6k ago, I started to notice the throttle didn't feel very smooth. I attempted to lube w WD-40 and it improved somewhat for a short period. It's pretty bad now and in a quiet room, you can actually hear the stickiness. Talking to the dealer (it's still under warranty), this is known to happen with bikes that are ridden a lot. He also said to not lube the twist grip sensor, when they wear and get sticky, they need to be replaced. They have the part in stock and they'll be replacing it tomorrow. I'll keep you posted.

Thank you. Very interesting read. 15-20k miles seems a little soon for that type of component. That's just a year and a half's riding. Hopefully the new one holds up better.
