bike running rough - odd TPS observation

Bike (2016 T120, low VIN) has been running rough the past 100 miles (it has 330 on it now). I plugged in DealerTool and discovered that while the TBs were showing to be balanced, the TPS voltage on TB1 and TB2 are WAAAAY off at idle and at part throttle.

Is this possibly a problem and could it explain why the bike sounds like it is skipping even though I don't think it is (no CEL)?

It's possible that it resets itself over time, related to RBW? Curious that it's not mentioned.

FWIW, on my 796 with Siemens, three fully startup cycles of the key without actually hitting the button will reset the TPS. On earlier Marelli bikes a computer interface was required.

I really don't understand people who complain in posts about posts. This is a discussion forum. So we discuss. And it isn't like you know jack or schit about the competency, schedules, or convenience of dealerships vs. the DIY person.

You would take your bike to the dealer. Knock yourself out. I'm not taking mine in until the 500 mile service and your whining about the post isn't going to help me figure out what (if anything) is up with the bike or if differing TPS sensor readings are normal or not.

If you have anything useful to say please post it. Otherwise go back to the garage to polish something.

Wow. Guess he told me. So I'll just go to the garage, polish her up and go for a ride. Next time there's something amiss I'll just whip out my handy code reader, strip it down and pretend I'm a master mechanic. The heck with a warranty. Chill out bro.
