Thanks Houtman for offering to help. Really appreciate it.. But I had already order the part last week. Its a back order so its going to take some time. 2-3 months is a looooooooooooong time to wait. Hence why I am exploring alternatives.
SportsterDoc, the rain damaging the bike is only initially thought as it wouldn't start after I left her in the rain. But thanks to Max and others help I had isolated the problem to this sensor. The bike have been having this intermittent misfiring when hot before this, but she always run without any problem. Guess now I know why she misfire once a while. As to how the part fail, I could only suspect the heat (I rode mostly in 38-40 Celcius/ 100F -104F for hours) or a small crash I suffer before this (It hit the right crank cover). Either might have cause it to open circuits, or other reasons unknown here.
