RE: Sportster occasionally dies while riding

Just thought I'd post an update-haven't been on here in some time.
I took it to Brown's in Dallas,and told them to just keep it until they had it fixed.
They tried all sorts of things over about a 10 day period.
Eventually they changed out the ignition module.
Since I got the bike back,I haven't had a bit more trouble out of it.
Runs great.

My bike does this a lot. When I take my seat off I push down on the wiring underneath the seat kinda to push it back in and the lights come back on and it’ll run. Hope this helps.
