I have a 07 trx500fm and my throottle has froze up due to cold weather twice,both times when I went to start the bike it was flashing a code 13 and after 15 minutes warming up at idle it was okay.I just shut it off and restarted the bike and the code cleared itself.
The last time though I went for a ride after it was warmed up,it was about 24 degrees out and I was going 45 mph ,when I let up on the throttle the bike kept going 30 mph,so I had to use the engine kill switch to slow down,but did not want to stop where I was,so I kept turning the bike on for spurts till I could turn around.After awhile,about 1/2 mile of going slow in spurts,I pulled over and the throttle was working fine.
It work for the next 2 hours great.I wasjust wondering what I could do to fix this problem?
There is no dealer around here,so i am going to have to try and fix this myself.Any ideas woold help.Thanks.

recall by honda

I just recieved a letter from honda.They said there is a problem of moisture getting by the wiring harness and freezing up in cold weather.They are going to get a replacement part out some time.I will just wait till then.Thanks for the response.
