On 2005 Road King, I was thinking bad injector but after reading and reading I think my problem might be not a problem at all but the EITMS keeping the rear cylinder shut down. I have not had it on the road just running in. Shop where I have been working on it. Any ideas on this is this a possibility?

Not available on 2005 model. Something else wrong with rear cylinder.

Spark, fuel, timing, or compression.

Instead of guessing, either perform tests for the above yourself if you have the ability, or take it somewhere and have it looked at. Shouldn't take all that long for a pro to figure out the culprit(s).

Did compression and checked for spark, all good . Problem is finding anyone that knows what they are doing. Even techs at HD dealership don’t know more than to nod their heads. Have to do work myself. Have been successful on all my bikes until this one.
