Backfire while at 70mph..Scary
First off I have an 04 sporty 1200C
V&H short shots
Knock off hypercharger
Just changed my oil and spark plugs today and I was cruising along the highway well all of a sudden around 70mpg I heard a huge BOOM from the exhaust and the bike shut off. I pulled over on the highway to check was it was, maybe a hose flew off or something or blown motor who knows but found nothing. I started it back up and safely made it home. I've been searching around and thinking it could be the CPS but I'm not getting the sputtering or backfire from takeoff. Harley told me before that I need to get that knock off breather off because the way it's mounted there's a closed vacuum line or something, and of course they want me to change to screaming eagle. It did it the other day and thought maybe I just needed an oil change but have no clue what it could be if its not the CPS.
