Default idle or throttle problem? or something else

just bought an 01 FLHRCI (Road King). Below is everthing the bike has (from what i was told from the seller).

engine has 4 crane cams roller rockers 100$ each, adjustable
> pushrods, JIMS big axle lifters, chrome bolt kits chrome point cover, I
> undercoated the fenders when I had the wheels off, custom front axle spacers,
> Chrome fork lowers serviced with Amsoil shock oilengine has 4 crane cams roller rockers 100$ each, adjustable

Rhinehart True duals, Amsoil Air Cleaner, 6-speed (screamin Eagle), big bore kit. And the fuel managemnt is Cobra Fi2000

At most stops the idle gets will choppy and in many cases stalls out. when sitting on the stand and i open the throttle and let it snap back it seems fine, but i am noticing the throttle is closing all the way, when i close the throttle completely the idle starts to sputter again and stalls out. I am new to all this fuel managment and from reading the forum haven't found a whole lot on the Cobra so i am assuming this is an area the guy slacked. Any ideas. As i am sure i left some info out let me know what else you need to help diagnose this problem.
