cracked induction hose would have been my guess. Same thing happened to my 87 900T when my wife drove it to the airport and couldn't get home.
I went up with her (she took a cab home, po'd.) and disconnected the AMM...brought it home limp-home mode. Crack was in the hose from the intercooler to the tube to the throttle body. O
ne point...on the new hose use THREE clamps. One each on either end of the hose, and one in the middle, just slightly clamped after the hose is installed. Seems the constant flex of the pressure on and off the hose bulges the hose and eventually it fails...I trust that eliminating or severely reducing the flex by using the third clamp will minimize failures.
In the meantime, remember the disconnect AMM trick (disconnect it with the power off, please!)...it will often get you home when something else fails!
