I'm sad to say that my 11tg is totaled. Just a damn stuck thottle and she jump the far curb sent me into a dirt pile and she rolled 2 or 3 times I think down a small steep hill. My right side is banged up good broke my shoulder blade in 2 place and my thumb also. Will wait until I heal and after insurance settlement and go from there on getting another bike.

Stuck throttle?? do you have any idea why it stuck ? Glad to hear your not banged up to bad ( although I'm sure it doesn't feel that way to you right now ) hope you have a speedy recovery.
 
Most importantly,,, I'm glad you're okay as we all are! Trikes can be replaced. You can't!

I'd be very curious to learn why that cable stuck.
 
No cable...Fly by wire...Cant imagine how it could stick....Glad you are ok..that is a pretty scary defect on a fly by wire system. Hopefully you can find out what caused it...
 
Man sounds like a horrible experience..Get well soon!!

It would be interesting to find out the root cause of this incident..

Get some rest!!
 
We're so very glad it wasn't any worse!! Take care of yourself and heal up fast as you can, and keep us posted on whatever new wheels you choose!! All good wishes coming to you from Central Texas!!
 
hope and pray for a speedy recovery. hope you get a good settlement for another trike.
 
That's a heart-breaker about your trike, but the important thing is that you're alive and WILL ride again. Please stay strong, get the rest you need to heal up as soon as possible and look forward to better days ahead with a new trike! ThumbUp
 
WOW..Glad yer OK....Iv wondered about these fly by wire, no cable thottles...Didnt Toyota have a huge recall on electric gas pedals sticking?...maybe the MOCO has a problem too?
 
Sorry to hear about your accident, get well soon. I have the same exact bike. I would be interested as to what made the throttle stick. Did it stick mechanically where the grip would not turn or did it stick electronically where turning the grip made no difference.

Get well soon.
 
Glad you are OK, get well soon! Stuck throttle on a drive-by-wire bike is a bit concerning. Let us know what you find out. I hope you can get another TG and get back on and go some more!
 
Thoughts and prayers going up for you! Be sure to give us more details when you know what caused the stuck throttle.
