Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 1) throttle fainls to respond properly when ascending to a higher altitude more than 1500ft higher than the starting point. 2) this has occurred on several occasions. the throttle will fail to respond when adding more throttle. the bike will begin to loss power until the throttle has been turned to add approximately 20% more, then it will accelerate abruptly. i have run off the road on a slow uphill corner while trying to keep up with the flow of traffic. i ended up being able to stop before i crashed into a snow bank. i have experienced this failure almost everytime i ride my motorcycle into the mountains. the motorcycle will only begin to respond correctly after shutting the power off for about one minute. 3) adventure motorsports has diagnosed the issue, and tried to make adjustments to correct the issue. this has not helped. 46 other owner have report this issue to me as well, the last 6 digits of their vin's are 000385 to 003350 so far. *tr
