I was just in a Veterans Day parade on my 03 Electra Glide of course the engine became very hot. After the parade I parked it for about an hour. I then rode it a short distance and it seemed fine. Parked it again for an hour or so, then I left and it seemed like the bike was running on only one cylinder, very sluggish, no "get up and go" got it home ok any ideas anyone? an 03 doesn't have parade mode does it????

Had a recent problem in which my 2009 activated it's EITMS, no codes but replaced the ETS, engine temperature sensor, and all is well again. Other ideas: coked oil, sumping, bad coil, bad plug, bad wire?

Is your bike EFI? Do you have a tuner on it?

Ok, check your plug wires both at the coil and at the spark plug. Pull a plug from the cylinder and see if its fouled. Just have to look for the easy stuff first, wires, plug, coil etc.
