Issue I don’t know how to describe.
My 2013 ultra classic has picked up an odd issue that I don’t quite know how to describe. The issue is when I am pulling out or riding very slow like 10mph. Pulling out it starts to go like normal and then like misses or varies in power. At first I’m like what is my issue I can’t pull out today. I thought it was me but then realized it was the bike. I’m wondering if the clutch is going bad. I’ve never had a clutch go bad so I don’t know how it really acts. At 10mph it just feels like it’s missing or something. Once at speed it runs fine and pulls fine on hills and everything. But I’ve just about dropped the bike because I go to pull out and it just don’t get going like it use to. Any ideas?

is the engine revving up and you're not going anywhere? Like it's slipping?
Or is the engine NOT making any power?
How many miles on the bike?
Do anything to the bike prior to this starting?

It has true duals screaming eagle exhaust and screaming eagle tuner. This was all done back in 2013 though when I got the bike and never had an issue until a week ago

that was our very first thought too the day it started. It was very hot and we were going slow on a back road. Turned off and problem still persisted.

It seems like it has been creeping up on you slowly until you now notice it.
Fuel line and filter good?
Plugs good?
Air filter good?
Injectors clean?
Throttle body clean?
Engine coked up some?
If you open throttle slowly does engine respond? If you blip the throttle does the engine respond with fast rise in revs?
