thats understood, but the sweep can be poor internally, and skip a section of voltage, this will cause an engine to return its revs to idle, or the next good reading along the swept area of the tps if throttle kept open. Am i right in interpreting the problem in that it doesn't cut out, it just loses power very suddenly? But always stays running? See if it always does it at a similar throttle position if it is common enough. (fwiw...Air mass sensors will cause the same. But have no idea if a Ducati has one).

I had a backed out wire on a tps connector once, bloody dangerous.

only my 2p

hope it gets sorted sharpish
