Default Engine cuts out

I have a 2013 street glide and when I roll off the throttle and go to get back on it engine cuts out. If I work the throttle and get it going again I can continue riding but if I try to throttle more it will cut out again. If the bike cuts out from a stop it will dye and won't restart for a couple of minutes. I'm at a loss

Where you're in MA, I'd recommend if you can get to Northborough during the week, see Steve Stone at Stones Cycle on Main St (rt 20) in Northborough.
Not carburetted, right?
If Steve refers you to a dealer, he'll probably recommend American Harley Davidson in Leominster. They are about as good as a dealer gets.
Good luck. It sounds like a funky fuel injected, electrical thing. I'm not sure if the throttle is drive by wire or there's an actual conventional, mechanical cable connection to a throttle body.

Got any mods done? Does it have a tuner? Any popping out of the TB or exhaust? Can you describe when it cuts out? Is it on the decel or after you reopen the throttle. Miles on bike?


You can't give us too much info and you can't over describe anything.
