Default dyna wasn't holding constant speed

Ever since I had my dyna dyno tuned with the TTS it has run flawlessly. The last few times I road it, it would start right up, idle great, run great when twisted but when I just cruized at one speed it felt like it had a slight surge. It's been bugging the crap out of me, being the perfectionist I am. I ran codes and everything was clear. I have taken my wife out on it and she never noticed it and I never brought it up after all the money I spent on it.

We decided to go out riding for half of the day, so I was doing all the preinspections and found that the rear cylinder spark plug wasn't snapped into place on the plug. We went out riding, and it was running great. It's amazing how powerful it pulls even with the additional 145 pounds on it (shhh). Had a great time except it was getting quite hot out.

I love when you find the simple solutions.

Lucky, and good for you. It's rarely that easy. At least for me anyway.
