Fuel injectors-Bike spitting back
Is is possible for a fuel injector to slowly leak fuel into the cylinders when a motorcycle sits overnight or for a few hours? I have a 2006 fuel injected Softail Heritage Classic. Sometimes, but not every single time, when I start it, after it has cooled or been sitting for a few hours, it spit backs, but then starts up immedidately. It is sort of a like a back fire. Is there any chance it could be the injectors? It still has the old injectors and I have been thinking of replacing them with the injectors called for in the recall notice. Any ideas?

Harley will only replace the injectors if they can confirm running or driveability problems. Mine's always run fine, so no new injectors.

ahh yep- thanks for the comment on that. I see that it was only a service bulletin and not a full on recall- so no love from HD unless rideability issues were noted. I don't see how the OP can figure this out though without going in for diagnostics / nothing is coming to mind on the DIY side.
