Throttle Safety Switch or faulty chassis ground??

2007 M8 D RG TURBO..WENT OUT TODAY DOWN THE TRAIL SITTING DOWN RUNS PERFECT SPOOLS UP PULLS HARD 1250 EGTS AND 11.8 AFR. ONCE I STAND UP AND START PULLING UPHILL WITH 3" RISERS THE CABLES ARE TIGHT AND I THINK STANDING CHANGES THE SQUEEZE ANGLE ON THE THROTTLE AND TORQUES THE THROTTLE ENOUGH TO ACTIVATE THE TSS( THROTTLE SAFETY SWITCH) I TRIED UNPLUGGING THE HARNESS FROM THE THROTTLE TO RULE OUT A BAD TPS SENSOR AND IT DIDNT CHANGE ANYTHING. HERES MY #'S DUTY CYCLE 60/93 CR=30 OS=20 AND PSIL=17,29,43 PSIH= 10,20,52 PLUGS GAPPED TO .018 ALL TIGHT 110 RACE FUEL. DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A TSS ISSUE TO YOU??? I UNPLUGGED THE TSS BUT HAVE NOT TRIED IT YET. HEEEEELLLLLPPPPPPP

A similar thing happened to me last weekend. I unplugged the TSS with the advise and help of Mountain Magic. I rode it yesterday for the first time and it ran great all day. Sled would start and idle or run at full throttle but would kill/die any where in between.
 
No issues all day. Pretty simple fix, if you have the small torx bit, #8, when you get inside. I'm no expert, got all my help from Kevin at MM. I could replicate it in the shop with the track in the air. I had a good feeling it was fixed before I even went out. I just left it unplugged.
