Remove the gas cap. Turn the ignition on, and look into the tank while switching on the run switch. Do not start it. You'll hear the fuel pump prime and you might be able to see or hear fuel spraying against the wall of the tank. The less gas in the tank the easier it is to tell anything.

So today I removed the crap aftermarket air filter and installed a a brand new screamin eagle breather I got from a buddy. It runs way better for sure but it didn't solve the problem. Also not sure if I mentioned but the bike also has a bassani 2 to 1.

You didn't mention having aftermarket intake and exhaust, it helps to know info like that. What kind of tuner do you have?

Fuel pressure, hose etc is good. Spark plugs are good. I'm gonna replace the injectors. For my year harley updated the degree of the injectors from 8 to 25 degrees. Will report back.

I've tested everything, fuel lines, pressure, tried different wires, replaced injectors. The bike runs great I get into that throttle and it falls flat on its face. I'm into this repair for $300 already. I'm gonna buy a power commander, but realistically that won't solve my problem. I'm at the point where I may just have to take it to HD. Any other ideas? Throttle position sensor? I'm about to stab myself in the eye at this point.
