Some new bikes are fly by wire, I don't know quite how those work. Most EFI bikes use butterflies actuated by a cable, just like with carbs.

Trufax. Most FI bikes are still cable driven, with a TPS on the TB to pick up throttle position and feed it to the ECU.Originally posted by Junkie View PostSome new bikes are fly by wire, I don't know quite how those work. Most EFI bikes use butterflies actuated by a cable, just like with carbs.
The R1 is fly-by-wire. It has cables that come off the throttle tube to a dedicated TPS under the tank. A stepper (well, it might be a servo) controls the actual throttle position on the throttle body. It's vague, laggy, and the only thing I don't like on the R1.Last edited by epim; 03-31-2013, 03:05 PM."I love Satan and speedmetal" - Dylan

Clutch or clutch cable? You're killin' me here."Through the course of my life, I've spent most of my money on motorcycles, drinking, drugs and chasing wild women. The rest of the money I just wasted."
I am the chosen one, the mighty hand of vengeance...

Clearly the result of your over enthusiastic tendencies to crash into Priuses.
You should sell that thing before you move and pick up a Ruckus 50 when you get there."Through the course of my life, I've spent most of my money on motorcycles, drinking, drugs and chasing wild women. The rest of the money I just wasted."
