Default 09 Ultra Classic Throttle Problem

I have an 09 Ultra. At 60 mph and in 6th gear the bike hesitates. It seems like the fuel is cutting off. When I let off the throttle it goes away. If I am above 60 MPH the is no problem. Other then driving at 70 mph. does anyone have an idea what may be wrong. Thanks

Stock or tuner? Mileage? Could do some routine maintenance to see if it clears it up like changing the fuel filter and checking/changing the fuel filter housing, cleaning the connector and pins behind the air cleaner, etc.

I think your in to high a gear to be for 60mph...6th gear should be run 70 and over.
