Do Softails shake Slightly at idle when hot . Sure they do their Harley's

I've noticed it shakes slightly at ide when hot . Yup
alot of decel pop........Add your own tuner and get a proper map. Or if you change to a carb a decel pop isn't always a bad thing. Personally in my sick sort of way I have fun with it.
poor fuel economy...Sounds like it's not tuned right.
.small tap which is intermittent from primary. They need to check this.
she seems to get quite hot....any clues. yup, it's a Harley, no worries.


It's all quite subtle and it still rides well ...It's not a BMW it's a Harley ride with pride.

So a little update.

Took it to the stealer...they said " that's normal"

IV been putting miles on her and she has her really good days and others that it dosent seem quite so well performing... although could be down to shitty piloting when I'm tired .
Found a chopper club who run" the chopper shed " gonna learn how to do it all myself. I'm sure Once a full stage one and tune is complete it will be an like a new set of wheels. Other then that I'm loving random 200 mile rides to see friends at the drop of a hat....has definitely added some spontaneity into the mix
