My 2008 Fatboy cuts out on tick over when its been driven a few miles some times its o/k then catches you out when need to stop.

It has a fuel pack V&N longshots and big sucker airfilter, could this be the fuel pack???

My dealer says that fuel pack owners get tick over probs and its best to go with the pro tuner.

I'd go in and put dielectric gel in all the connectors and then clean up your battery connections, see if anything changes. go from there.

Or you could try running t without the fuelpak for a few blocks and see if that makes a difference. that will tell you if it is the fuelpak right away.
