Do you have any fault codes present? What is your hot idle RPM? On my 98RKC it is 1,000 rpm.

What that link says.
Also check your temp sensor, it can cause some strange idle problems when it starts to go bad.
I've got a '96 FLHRI, so far so good. There is a lot of good info on here to keep them running.

You could still have historical faults stored.
Buy a digital tach. They aren't very expensive. FI injected bikes need to have the idle speed set where the service manual recommends.

Hello old chap, just picked up on your thread. I have a Buell Firebolt, which has an odd generation of EFI and, having an aftermarket muffler and air filter installed, popped and banged on the overrun - made old ladies and young children run for cover!
I have recently installed a Dobeck beasty and the results are remarkable. It starts more readily, idles more smoothly and rides a treat, orchestral overrun sorted. So on a sample of one, and with the usual caveats that your bike is in tip-top order in all other regards, it sounds as if one will do what you seek.
Here in the UK they were sold under the brand Kitech.
