I did adjust it after the previous 10000 reading but it still read 10000 and couldn't get it to 5000 so just left it. I will see how it goes, I'm hoping its fine, I think I read somewhere that the TDM 850 has same TPS and possibly a few other bikes if I need to look for a replacement.
You're answering your own questions here, hence the reason you have another post on here titled "Running Lumpy".
If it won't adjust then it's knackered, simple as that. One of mine wouldn't budge off 10,000 either, so time for a new one. There's no other reason why you shouldn't be able to adjust it back onto 5000rpm. Only thing that is throwing me is the relatively low mileage on your bike, but even still, it should be adjustable.
"Hope" doesn't really work on broken bits of bikes either, they generally either work or they don't, they won't fix themselves so lots of praying is out of the window too.
I seriously wouldn't even bother purchasing a used one. As i found out twice you'll just be buying something on it's last legs, and will have absolutely no idea how many miles it's done already, but one thing for sure is that it'll be a minimum 14 year old part waiting to break down again.
And you can't even consider a carb balance with a fooked TPS, it'll make the bike even more unpredictable.
Unless you're totally strapped for cash then go for it, otherwise just buy a new one and you'll end up saving money in the long run. :thumbup
