As I noted earlier, under more "normal" speeds/throttle openings, the zip tie/lock wire is not required. Under more hard throttle/higher rpm, the stock spring is not enough and needs more to make sure both throttle shafts move and "stay" in unison.
Hence the zip tie or lock wire. I used a zip tie on my 1125CR and I drove that bike for around 30,000+ miles without problem...well, until the front ehxaust cam started falling apart..! It's still waiting for me to finish the cam swap..!

Thanks to Christian (Carbonbolt) and Norbert (Buell-parts.com), today received a resistor. Currently motorcycle located maintenance after 10,000 km.
The procedure for replacing the solenoid resistor spend yourself later.
About to the throttle bodies - I want to have them fastened with rivets, I do not want to apply zip-tie. Anyway during maintenance trottles it must be removed.

Today carefully considered throttle bodies, dismantled the bike. We do not need no zip-tie, no rivets, no wire. Throttle valve drive is designed so that both valves are opened at the same time in any position of the gas handle.
I will do nothing, just remove the solenoid.

I have binned the solenoid, but as curious as hell to understand
1. What does it actually do
2. How does it work.
I did find that the cables were restricting the throttle body to only 85-90% opening.
It's purpose is to pass an US-EPA noise limit for the muffler.
The particular test specifies the vehicle pass a microphone under hard acceleration, i.e. WFO.
Buell and now EBR set the 'noid to fire just as it passes the mic, completely closing the throttle and instantly becoming quiet.
It only fires in 3rd gear, WFO at 5850rpm or something.

Good it can stay in the bin then !
