Default 2005 Road King

I have a 2005 RoadKing , the other day on the way home it started having lack of power and back firing through the throttle bottle and wanting to die. Any suggestions on where to start looking for the problem at?

My Road Glide started acting up the same way and what I've found this far is a possible fuel line failing in the tank or an impeded fuel filter. I'm opting to change out the hoses, filter and pressure regulator to boot. I have about 40k on the clock.
