ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a throttle position sensor for a motorcycle including a handlebar having an end. The throttle position sensor includes a rotor having a first end and a second end. The rotor is positioned within the handlebar and rotated relative to the handlebar. The second end is closer than the first end to the end of the handlebar. The throttle position sensor also includes a sensor operable to detect rotation of the rotor relative to the handlebar and generate a signal corresponding to the rotation of the rotor relative to the handlebar. The throttle position sensor further includes at least one electrical conduit passing into the rotor from the first end. The at least one electrical conduit is routed through the rotor and is accessible from the second end of the rotor.
