Default SG problem, stalls on idle


My SG with 1400 miles behind has soemthing wrong, it missfire and stalls and does´nt run at all on idle. It has worked fine until today. I did the first service my self and now I wonder if there is some software that need a signal that the first service is done?

I was happy until today, and now I am pissed off, I thought a new harley would work and next friday I have one week vacation and wa splanning to go for a trip but now.......****!

I have the SE 25 degree injectors and I was riding in rain 1 hour before the trouble started and now after it has been staying for 2 hours I started it and it seems to wrok fine, should I be afraid for riding in rain that was the reason I bough a bagger.

It was the crank shaft position "sniffer" that was faulty, but the stealer asked e if I had been riding in rain and off coursem thats why I have a bagger so that no weather stop my ride. Now they said the put alot of grease between and I wonder if should be conserned about riding in rain now?

If SG is´nt rainproof I will sell it and go for a old carburated model.

Rode my SG through alot of rain and a little hail a few months back. No adverse problems. Probably just "one of those things".
