Yup...I have an '07 RK custom and it's done it to me 4 or 5 times.&nbsp\\; Dealer can't figure it out because it doesn't triger any codes.&nbsp\\; Not much help, I know.... just wanted to let you know you're not alone on this.&nbsp\\;

Happened to me twice. The first time it was blamed on the neutral switch. That fixed it for a couple of weeks. Then they blamed it on the speed sensor (VSS)so that was replaced. After two neutral switches and 2 new speed sensors, the problem seems to be fixed. (Knock wood)
When mine did it, the bike would die, speedo would quit working and the self-cancel function for the turn signals stopped working. Check to see if you get a code. The dealers know it's a problem so you shouldn't catch any grief about it.

Mine has done it 6 times dealer automtically blames it on V&amp\\;H Fuelpack. They said it was intermitent and doesnt throw a code. I unhooked the Fuel pack and rode 300 miles and it didnt happen. I had another dealer install my Race Tuner and the bike runs so much better. No problems since I did away with the Fuel Pack. I hate dealers that just want to sell you something. The dealer that installed my Race Tuner is more experienced, and willing to work with you. Sometimes its worth the drive to get good service.
