Might have the throttle position sending unit checked.

hej,
don't panic ... it's a known problem . Just change the so called TPSsensor / actuator.
TPS stands for throttle position sensor ...
Good luck

Thanks to you all



Had the engine running today, it idle just fine and will let it idle for a longer time tomorrow just to be sure, there was condesed water in my petrol, Yamaha had it for 2.5 months in a cool garage, ( I had a ticker and they put a new cylinder head on it) one day it was warm and a next day it was freezing outside so it got condense in the petrol tank.

I hope I am right and it will run fine tomorrow.

But before you change the TPS, try to have it checked at your dealer, since they can sometimes fix it without ordering a new one. fyi
