It has nothing to do with "learning how to run the bike at slow speeds"
I have reset the codes and after 1000 miles the same code has returned. By jumpy I mean the bike, while holding a steady throttle jerks forward and some times it feels as if the engine misses like the bike cuts out for an instant. I also hear a bit of popping/crackling from the exhaust when I let off the throttle at speeds above 35.
P0505 is the code and I will just wait till winter comes to take it in. Thanks all for the replies.
Quick update for anyone who cares. Took the bike in to HD and completes the 15k service. Foundnout my bile had the stage 1 download and it needed to be recalibrated. After the redo she runs like new. Guess the severe leak from the missing rear exhaust bolts caused it to vermouth of whack.
