Default Engine missing out after warmed up
2013 Street glide. After riding for a bit, engine is warmed up. Stop at a long light or slow stop and go traffic, bike starts missing out and sometimes will die. Starts right back up.

Carefully trickle carb cleaner around the intake using the red straw on the can, see if there's an intake gasket leak that's opening up as things get warm. The RPMs will rise if you hit a leaky spot.

Get some throttle body cleaner and clean throttle body.
Remove air cleaner. Get a good rag wet with the cleaner. Manually open throttle plate and wipe throttle body by swiping rag into throttle body, above and below throttle plate. Carefully spray cleaner at pivot points of throttle plate. Reinstall air cleaner.

if it keeps doing that it could be a code stored which could shed some light on the issue.

Is EITMS turned on? Try turning it off. The engine should run even with EITMS active but if that makes a difference the front spark plug or plug wire may have a problem.
