2000 Road King running issues
I have a 2000 Road king with 60K miles on it. It has ran amazing for years. Out of nowhere it has started running like crap.
It it runs amazing fir the 1st 5 mins or so but once she is warmed up it starts bogging down and popping.
I change the TPS Sensor and Engine Temp sensor. This did not help. I'm at a loss hoping someone on here can help me out. Thanks.

Check the spark plug wire to the front cylinder. They rub on the bottom of the fuel tank and can short out. The first few minutes of running the fuel mixture is richer and easier to ignite. Once the engine is warm and the fuel mix is leaner the easier path to ground may be to the bottom of the tank. Just a thought.

You don't say it has Fuel Injection or a carb but due to the age I'm going to say it probably has a carb? If so check your accelerator pump on side of carb. May have a hole in diaphram. You should be telling us the mileage. Any work done prior. Fuel injected or carb. That will help us help you.
