Does anyone know the type of connector required for the GSXR TPS?

Also a good supplier would be useful too?

Connectors for gsxr TPS seem to change with years, mine (K1) have the triangular things.

Cut mine off and used a three pin waterproof connector off ebay

Ive been looking at the very same thing over the weekend.

What are the 3 wires? I assume 1 will be ground, 1 will be signal, 1 will be +v. Is this correct and can somebody identify which is which?

It is a potentiometer.

So there will be a fixed resistance between two of the wires (5k I think) one of which needs to be the earth and the other the 5v.

The other wire is the wiper, when the throttle is closed the wiper will have a low resistance to the lead that you want to wire to the earth. The wiper is easy to find.
