Hesitation? Not running smoothly?

[CBenthuzed_imp]

My '13 stock CB1100 doesn't run as smoothly as it should and I know most don't have this problem but some of us do. I might have found an answer, and I don't know if this will work or not (I haven't tried it yet) but I'm going to soon. I found this on the Concours Owner's Group message board. One of the guys there was complaining about rough running and he got a reply: "Sure sounds like the TPS. Turn the bike on, do not start it. Twist the throttle on full, roll off full, do it twice. Turn off bike, turn back on and start. Go for a ride and see if it works. Report back and tell me I am a motorcycle god, or worthless POS FWIW, this works on GSs that have a similar problem with the TPS, ECU will read the full on/off position and do a rest to the current values. Same holds true when calibrating the PCV or PCIII."
Here's a link to the entire thread if you want to have a look:

Thank you guys for this thread. My bike has about 623 miles on it and I have began to have some of the same issues. Thought at first I might have bad gas. Anyway quick question. Does it matter in this procedure of turnig the bike on, I'm assuming turn the key to the on position, and having the red ignition/kill swith on right handle bar to what position. Does it matter in this procedure if it is in the ignition on or kill position. I know with it in the kill position no fuel will pump into the cylinders. Then of course, in the key on position cycle the throttle several times full on to full off to reset the tps. Does it matter which positon the igniton/kill switch is in. Thanks, CBenthuzed
