Stalling at stop lights and such...

Stalling at stop lights and such...
Okay, my bike has started stalling at stop lights since I changed out my throttle cable. So far I have changed plugs and plug wires (the new uskoollines arrived today) cleaned my IAC (which is my usual response to this problem) and it seemed that no dirt really came out. Battery cables are tight. I just cleaned and reoiled my air filter and am ready to reinstall it and go for another test ride. If this does nothing i will unhook my power commander and see if that might be the cause. Other problems I have thought of are the fact that I have a custom homemade breather on the a/c that might be clogged, maybe I pinched a wire under the tank when reinstalling it after installing the throttle cable, or maybe the IAC is just shot as my bike is a 2002 with 60K on it. Another option is the Crank Position Sensor as well.
The bike starts up fine but seems like it might be idling a little low for the first few seconds.
If you have had this problem, how did you solve it and what was the real problem? Let me know please.
thanks!

Same here Drew, but I don't know what's going on.
07' Train 17,000 mi. with the pcIII, 103", 204's and tuned right. Doesn't do it all the time and seems to act up more if I'm runnin' hard. Come up to a light, rpms drop and she just stalls out. It will act up for a day or two, and then nuttin, she's fine for a couple of months. Been doing this for about 2 yrs. now.

Thanks for that. I rarely wash my bike or ride in the rain but it is worth a try. I jsut got back after the full a/c cleaning and such. Well, I have a clean air filter, but it is still acting up. Mine stalls almsot every time which is what really bothers me. Next is to unhook the pcIII and see what happens, but I think it is realted to my breather msot likely. After teh PCIII check I will reisntall teh a/c without the breather and see what happens. It's rush hour around here and traffic is insane so i will wait until alter tonight or tomorrow.

Look at the plate that your two throttle cables are attached to on the throttle body. When the throttle closes there is a raised portion that almost hits the air cleaner backing plate. There is supposed to be a very small allen screw that stops that plate. You cannot however adjust the idle there. It is controled by the computer.
