Ok that makes sense then. I used a bottle of octane booster a few fill ups ago.

+1 on fuel additives, usually the center electrode should be ash white to tan, no black fluffiness, black wetness, just dry tan or lighter. Change plugs then run some premium gas from a name brand station, check your plugs after a couple hundred miles. Don't use E85 fuel it's not good for the rubber in your fuel system and theECM can't adjust for it. 10% ethanol is the highest rating ethanol you can use in the engines from Harley.
