2013 HD Streetglide with a Screamin Eagle Stage 4, 113 cu in kit installed.
when under a hard acceleration the bike feels like it is skipping a tooth on a sprocket. It jumps or skips at a regular rate when at full throttle. It feels like it is jumping a tooth on a gear or something. I am trying to find what it could be.

The belt may be missing a tooth or two or the belt tension is off. I can't think of anything beyond that, that will cause it..
How many miles does it have on it? I just had to replace my belt because the belt teeth were all cracked and about to let go. My bike has 75k on it though.
