Default Need help. 2006 1200

Hey all. My Son-in-Law bought a 2006 1200 Custom and it's been driving us nuts. I has pipes and an aircleaner. We replaced the carb, jetted it up, and replaced the crank sensor. Also has new plugs and battery The bike fires right up but once it's warm she breaks up when you give it gas. It does have the security system. Anything else we can check? We are thinking Ignition Control Module. Thanks.

What jets do you have in it?

Do the pipes have baffles?

Hey! Sorry for the late response but we lost power for a few days. Turned out to be the rectifier. Changed that and went to a 45 jet and she runs great! Thanks!
