Surging in first
I have an 06 Super Glide. In first gear going real slow, the bike really surges. It's not smooth at all. It's real jerky. Is this normal or do I have a problem?

think its normal mines the same way.

try lubing your throttle cables with inox or i use three inone oil

This is caused from running lean near idle conditions. Fairly normal for stock ecm calibrations. Not sure if there is a dealer download for that. I put up with that bs for the first season and got rid of it with a tmax install. Smooth and steady in any gear and throttle position.

Had a surge in all gears at lower rpms, but not lugging it. Dealer upgraded my map per service bulletin M-1220. They also changed my CPS (crank position sensor), all under warranty. Surge is pretty much gone but not some backfire, but is an improvement and I only put on about 30 miles since. Mine is an 07 Street Bob.

What's M-1220 service bulletin? Anyone have a copy of that?
|
My '06 surges in first gear to this day, even after a Dyno tune. I've learned to live with it.
|
Okay...I just was worried I might have a problem. It doesn't necessarily bother me that much as long as nothing's wrong. Thanks.

Surging can be caused by 8 degree fuel injectors on the 2006 models.
M-1185 1 of 2 SERVICE BULLETIN M-1185 February 20, 2006 FUEL INJECTOR/CALIBRATION CHANGES FOR 2006 1450cc BIG TWINS ® Purpose It has recently been determined that the 8 ° angle cone spray fuel injectors used on 2006 1450cc Big Twins may cause cold start and/or driveability problems on some motorcycles. In the interest of promoting customer satisfaction, the 25 ° angle cone spray fuel injectors used on CVO 103 cu. in. (1690cc) motors will be installed on all production Big Twins beginning on or around February 13, 2006. Additionally, Harley-Davidson will provide for the installation of 25 ° angle cone spray fuel injectors on those motorcycles where use of the 8 ° fuel injectors (part number 27625-06) is determined to be directly responsible for cold start and/or driveability problems. See REQUIRED DEALER ACTION. NOTE Due to changes in the manufacturing process, the part number of the 25 ° angle cone spray fuel injector is changing from 27709-06 to 27709-06A. This fuel injector also will be stamped with the words “25 DEG” for easy identification. See Figure 1. Motorcycles Affected Only 2006 1450cc Big Twin model motorcycles that exhibit cold start and/or driveability problems directly related to use of 8 ° angle cone spray fuel injectors (including those subsequently equipped with P&A Screamin’ Eagle 1450cc or 1550cc Performance Kits). Required Dealer Action 1. Adhere to the flow chart in Figure 2 when handling customer complaints regarding cold start and/or driveability problems on affected motorcycles. 2. If the flow chart indicates that the fuel injectors are the source of the problem, check the part numbers stamped on the fuel injectors. While standing on the left side of the motorcycle, the part number on the rear fuel injector can be easily read with the aid of a flashlight. 3. If required, remove both 8 ° angle cone spray fuel injectors following the procedure in the applicable 2006 Service Manual. Install 25 ° fuel injectors, either part number 27709-06 or 27709-06A.

Fuel Injector Part Numbers f2447x8x Old Style 8° Fuel Injector New Style 25° Fuel Injector NOZZLE END IMPORTANT NOTE In the interest of preserving customer safety and satisfaction, always check for outstanding recalls whenever any motorcycle is brought into your dealership for either maintenance or service. ©2006 HARLEY-DAVIDSON MOTOR COMPANY ROUTING SERVICE MANAGER SALES MANAGER PARTS MANAGER LEAD TECHNICIAN TECHNICIAN NO.1 TECHNICIAN NO. 2 TECHNICIAN NO. 3 TECHNICIAN NO. 4 RETURN THIS TO INITIAL HERE M-1185 2 of 2 NOTE Always replace both 8 ° angle cone spray fuel injectors on affected motorcycles. Never mix 8 ° and 25 ° fuel injectors on the same motorcycle. NOTE If the part numbers on the fuel injectors are rubbed off or otherwise unreadable, count the number of orifices or holes in the injector nozzle. The 8 ° angle cone spray fuel injector has just three holes, while the 25 ° has six. See NOZZLE END in Figure 1. 4. Update the ECM calibration. For those motorcycles equipped with P&A Screamin’ Eagle 1450cc or 1550cc Performance Kits, refer to h-dnet.com for the correct calibration P/N. Credit Procedure Complete a separate warranty claim for each vehicle serviced. Reference Service Bulletin M-1185 in the “Comments” or “Notes” section and be sure to include the VIN of the vehicle on which the service was performed. Fill in the rest of the claim as follows: Performance calibrations require pre-authorization from Technical Service to be considered for warranty coverage unless listed on the SWR. Upon receipt of the properly completed claim, you will receive the labor credit shown above. Figure 2. Cold Start/Driveability Flow Chart Correct condition or install compatible components. Are cold start or driveability problems still evident? Check the following: ● Fuel has the recommended octane rating and is not contaminated. ● IAC operation. ● Spark plug condition. ● Engine is configured correctly (with the appropriate air cleaner and exhaust). ● Vehicle configuration is supported by the correct calibration. Refer to Calibration Information on h-dnet.com. Does the vehicle pass inspection? YES NO Check fuel pressure. Is fuel pressure between 58-62 psi? YES NO Replace the 8° fuel injectors with 25° fuel injectors. Update ECM calibration. Check part numbers stamped on fuel injectors. Are 8° or 25° angle cone spray fuel injectors installed? 8° 25° Refer to SYMPTOMS DIAGNOSTIC in Digital Technician. Problem resolved. YES NO 5388 Applicable DT Code Refer to SYMPTOMS DIAGNOSTIC in Digital Technician.
