- June 02, 2019, 21:28:16 PMI think I might have solved the issue....the Dynatek programmer that came on the bike when I got it seems to have started malfunctioning.....I tried several different pot settings....it would definitely change the idle speed, but the hesitation would sometimes be worse...finally yanked the whole thing out and guess what...runs smooth as silk (so far). I will probably have to get another programmer, though, since I am running a Thunder air system and V&H Longshots....
Plugs are new but were all looking somewhat fouled...and my mileage was dropping severely...hopefully this with take care of it for now...

- June 02, 2019, 14:42:50 PMso....time for some help, please. My 1500 has started running really rough and misfiring on the rear cylinder. Has new plugs, new air filter and I only run premium non-ethanol fuel. it has slowly become worse to the point that it is no longer feasible to ride. I put a brand new battery in today and resealed the air-cleaner mounting plate....still didn't help. ran diagnostics...no codes flashed.....so...coils?. bad spark plug? programmer going bad? , any ideas would be helpful....
thanks,
