2025 Fat Boy limp mode

markpescod1 — Sun, 17 May 2026 15:39:32 GMT

Good morning all. Went for a 100 mile ride yesterday. No issues at all. Today was riding locally, in a 35 mph area, I may have been lugging the motor doing 40, made a right at a round-a-bout, bike lost power. Pulled over real quick, but kept the bike on. Sat there for about 15 seconds, and then everything went back to normal, except for the Check Engine light. Pulled into a parking lot to check codes, and got a P230100. I cleared the code, fired it back up, got on the freeway, rode 70+ mph for 15-20 minutes, no issues. Once home I glanced at all the wiring. Everything looked good and no codes. No idea what happened there. Bike has a stage 1, around 3200 miles, no engine mods.

Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail Classic start without pin and key fob?

123omari123 — Sun, 17 May 2026 15:37:31 GMT

Hi,
I bought Harley FLSTC 2017 from iaai to other country and finally delivered :) It doesn't come with key and key fob. But I can switch to IGN, OFF or ACC and it shows requirement of entering PIN code. I don't have PIN(tried some common variants but not resolved problem ofc). I called professional and he told me there is no way to start my harley or to reset pin without key fob and programming it. So, nothing can be done? Will I have to buy key fob and program it? Is there any cheaper method?

Done taking a break

saz — Sat, 16 May 2026 13:56:20 GMT

I took a bit of a break from the bikes for a while, and im back up riding again. My 07 night train is still a 96" with a set of andrews 48 cams and V&H big radius. Apparently all the kids call my bike "old school". Never thought of it that way. My other rigid chop should be up today after my new poi ts get here. Old jammer frame, evo, baker 6into4 kick only, open 1.75 primary. This is old school.

I have been helping a friend get into another bike (sold his old street glide for down payment on his house)- he has the bug, which lit a fire under my a$$. Man, how i missed it.

He has been looking at different bikes, getting a feel for what he wants. We went to an independent shop yesterday where he rode a 24 street Bob. Liked it. Went to a HD dealer afterwards where I found a 17 Low rider S with 1300 miles. LOVED IT! But even after not setting foot in a dealer for over 10 years, the game hasn't changed. What a f'n circus. High pressure games, no straight answers, nothing has changed. The arrogance is still alive and well. However, the used market is FULL of great bikes, ill keep helping him hunt for the right bike. Good to be back boys!!!

Finally finished old girl!

Don't post alot on here but this one i had to. 2009 softail deluxe 4300 miles on her. Bought it from a friend who neglected her. She was ugly and not my style when I bought her but she turned out beautiful!!

1993 fatboy bogging out

DREDAY7880 — Wed, 13 May 2026 16:32:56 GMT

Everything was fine. I drove to go to dinner and on my way home. I left the light and when I go into first gear right when I�m about to switch over the second gear, the bike starts bogging out so I have to let go of the throttle and give it more gas to stay on, but I have to keep letting go and giving a gas in order for it to not turn off and I can�t get into the next gear because it�ll die before I even get there. Does anyone have any idea what it might be?

I can post a video if it would help

In-line Fuse for LED's

Uncle Peepers — Wed, 13 May 2026 14:12:20 GMT

I have some stick-on LED's that I'd like to install under the tank on my Heritage Classic. My question in what amperage to select. I'm thinking 3 or 4 amps. Sound about right?
Thanks.

Springer rail on 2017 deluxe.

bmedeiros678 — Sun, 10 May 2026 21:39:54 GMT

I need some help to find out if the rail is just a bolt on. I do see some listings for the rail. Show fits up to 2014 deluxe. Is there a difference between the 2014 and 2017? Can someone post a photo of their deluxe with this rail on their stock seat?

Plug For 03 FLSTC What Is It For?

Rocky Hill — Sun, 10 May 2026 17:16:15 GMT

Is the plug number 14 originally for the fuel injection? It doesn't say what it is it just says plug, and it also has a rubber plug in the center of it to seal it up. My bike is 03 FLSTC. Carbureted.

Air horn on a Fat Boy?

PontiacMike — Sun, 10 May 2026 15:11:53 GMT

I think the first upgrade I want to do is replace the stock horn on my '18 Fat Boy. I've only had this bike a day and don't this stock horn could scare a squirrel out of my way. Anyone add an air horn to theirs? If yes, do you have some pictures or a link to your thread that you could share? I tried searching the forum and couldn't find any good air horn installs on a Fat Boy.

2001 FLSTI

Maltesefalcon — Wed, 06 May 2026 12:58:02 GMT

Hi All
I have a 2001 Heritage Springer with a ticking noise. When I have it idling no ticking sound when I throttle the gas no ticking sound either. Start riding it and going down the road it starts ticking and sometimes loud. Let the throttle go and it stops. The sounds seams to be coming from the front cylinder but not completely sure since it only happens when I'm riding. Was wondering if anyone had anything like this happen. The guy I bought it from was the original owner and the bike is bone stock with just 10k miles. He said the mechanics at the dealer he use to take it too told him not to worry some Harley bikes do that. I have 5 Harleys and none of them ever had a ticking sound like this. Any help would be apricated.
