My 2011 Wide Glide started this today. While riding it will pop and sputter, losing power. At first it was gentle, so much so I assumed it was my imagination. After about 15-20 min riding it got worse. It is cutting power when under load and the speedo will drop very quickly, faster than I'm actually losing speed. When I come to a full stop it stalls out. It restarts no problem then starts again when i get into 2nd gear. Ideas? BTW it's got extended warranty.

 

Is it throwing any codes?

 

With the warranty just bring it in, no sence in trying to figure it out yourself when you donlt need to. Good luck

 

No codes, nothing. Its as though its turning off but the lights and clock don't cut out

 

Its got a full tank of premium put in it three days ago. Fuel line maybe? Electrical?

 

pin hole in your fuel line is my guess same thing mine did... there is a write up on here on how to replace it, i also have a thread on here somewhere as well... let me know if you have any questions

 

I was having the same problem on my 11 Street Bob, took it in.
They adjusted the clutch which improved it a lot, but I still get it once in a while (need to take it back in). I've noticed (unless it's my imagination) that it seems to be happening more when I'm lower on gas, so my guess is I also have a pin hole in my fuel line. I'll let you know what they say when I take my ride back in again.

 

Where is it popping?

Popping in the exhaust is usually from a fouled plug, maybe a plugged air filter, leaking fuel inhjector, or incorrect fuel mapping

Popping in the air cleaner is usually from a lean condition like maybe the pinhole in the fuel line or a plugged fuel filter or maybe a fuel pump going out.

 

the popping is in the exhaust, so far as i can tell. I've got VH BR 2in2 with the VH Fuelpak. Haven't re-entered the map to see if that's it yet. I've had the pipes on it with the fuelpak over a year without changes. Does the fuelpak drop fills?

 

Don't understand Drop Fills as i dont use the fuel pack however, I have got a Power Commander wet and had to reset it then reinstall the map to overcome a fuel issue.

Popping throught he exhaust is most likely a fouled plug, if yo have another set, pull and change noting if what you remove is sooted with carbon. Also look to see if both or only 1 is sooted as another way to soot the plug is for the coil to intermittently misfire. If you only have 1 sooted chances are you may want to investigate the ignition system, bad coil or wire. Or maybe you just got a bad plug and changing the plugs will solve the problem.
