Default Stalling

2000 flhtcui will stall when cold if rpms drop too low. After this happens bike will start then cut out and stall after 2-5 seconds no matter rpms. Have to disconnect battery for a few minutes and is fine. If allowed to warm up on initial start up without stalling no problems. Any ideas?

Think I found the issue. Security system added at some point. Removed all of it and now seems to run smoother. Going to try starting when i get home from work today when it's cold and see

Sounds more like a dirty IAC than a security system problem or a hole in the internal fuel line.
