Default Engine Hesitation/Stalls at various speeds/times...

My Streetglide has had a "transient" hesitation or stall. Mostly while cold, I notice it while taking off in 1st gear. Occasionally in 2nd while cruising slowly. I got a bad tank of gas a while back when it stalled badly, but as soon as I ran it down, I replaced the fuel. It ran fine for a while. I have 30,000 miles on the bike and was wondering if I should replace the fuel filter ? Are there any issues with the intake line from the tank getting debris , etc ? With the bad fuel, it stalled bad enough on the highway, the cruise would shut off.

Definitely start w/the fuel filter...maybe run a bottle of Sta-Bil 360 through the bike and see if it kicks things back to norm.
