Thanks!

I don't remember touching the throttle at all, but it has probably been 10 years since I installed my heated grips.
It's possible you got the cable installed incorrectly on the drum or maybe pulled it out near the right throttle body or at the Bowden box.
It's preferable to use a GS911 tool to set the stepper motors while syncing the throttle bodies. That being said, I have balanced the throttle bodies without setting the steppers and the bike ran fine.
You will also need a balancing tool for the throttle bodies.

Cheers
