Road king Popping when shifting and decel
My new ,used 03 Screaming Eagle Road King makes a load pop out the exhaust when shifting from 1st to second at 2-2500 rpm's and 2nd to third at about the same rpm's. I have the Rinehart true duel, PC111 and Big sucker Air cleaner.
Eastern Performance installed everything and dynoed it for the previous owner. IS this normal or do I have a mapping problem or something else.
It also feels like it missing real bad excelerating in 1st gear and reving the engine with the clutch disengaged. I know it's EFI but it feels like the idle/air mixture screws need adjusting (which I know it doesn't have).
Are these things normal for an A engine especially with the 103ci engine?
Thanks Gasman

I had the same problem. Got the Power Commander wiring harness wet while washing, backfired and popped and finally fouled a spark plug. Check the wiring harness, and change the plugs. Shifting around 2000 RPM is lugging the engine, not good!

RE: Road king Popping when shifting and decel
I checked my exhaust flange nuts tonight and guess what? 2 were missing and the other 2 were just barley on. I ran to home depot and found some 5/16 fine thread nut and put a washer behind it and tighted them as snug as I could get them. I wonder if this could have been some of my missing, popping problems? Will this mean I will have to replace the gaskets? I will ride it tommorrow to see how it performs.
