‘09 Heritage - slows at Idle
Greetings,
I recently purchased a 2009 Heritage Softail. I’ve run into something I’d like some opinions on. When I’ve been riding in stop and go traffic and the engine is probably warming up - I’ll stop a light and suddenly the engine will idle a little rough. As soon as I roll on the throttle, all is fine.
I vaguely recall Harley did something on some engines where they did something to help cool the rear cylinder - and that’s what it feels like. In all other aspects it’s running fine.
Anyone have any thoughts.

Thanks - further research confirms what you're saying. I even fount the "comment" about EITMS in the manual. Knowing it's not a problem is sufficient. I can get used to it. Besides, disabling it seems to be counter productive? I mean, it's there for a reason - right??...
Thanks again....
Thanks again....
