The other day my GS throttle suddenly stopped responding as I crossed a main road . The engine kept running at 2000 RPM but would not rev engine. After 30 seconds it suddenly started responding again. Earlier I the day the bike suddenly cut out completely all electrics turned off so had to restart it. I’ve had this before at 11300 miles when throttle stopped responding just as I was about to join motorway which could have been interesting and even though no fault code, my dealers replaced the throttle assembly and grip and has been ok until now . Bike has now done 14,000 miles . It’s going into my dealers this week and hope they can sort this issue. Anyone had same issues and had fault sorted successfully.
 
I had that happen on a couple of ad-hoc occasions on my 2019 R1250GS, dealer re-calibrated the throttle and (touch wood) it hasn't happened again in the last few thousand miles.
 
To me it only happened 3 times (2021 GS) and every time it was my shifting error when bike hits false neutral. So, in false neutral there is no throttle response.
Knowing that as a fact, can it be possible that your bike has gear position sensor intermittent fault so it sometimes thinks it's in false neutral?
