My 09 Road King is Overheating
#21
It has happened twice in less than 3 weeks. It happened yesterday, temps outside were around 70 degrees. I'm taking it in to the dealer when I find time, cuz I'm sure they will need to keep it a few days. It is still under warranty so I'm not too worried. Only changes I have made are Vance/Hines Oval Slip-ons, air cleaner and Power Commander......Any reason for the overheating? I'm thinking something to do with oil circulation, because I have been complaining about the constant ticking, which is getting louder.

2010 Road King Parade Mode
My 2010 King went to Limp/Parade Mode in light Traffic in December. I had similar problems During summer riding but the ECM provided error codes so I could chase down the issue. I had a loss of a connection at the EFI connector and lack of Dia-o Grease. Today the Bike went into Limp mode in very cool weather. It reset once I shut the bike down for a few seconds. It repeated the limp mode after 2 or 3 miles. any Ideas ? I have a stage one with Rhinehart exhaust. I did not get any error codes on these resent events and have no clue where to look.

Are you saying the 'parade mode' depends on oil temperature? and nothing to do with head temps? Just asking...

I have yet to here what is exactly happening. what leads you to believe it has overheated?
Here is something that happened to me on a road trip last year. My bike would die while i had the clutch pulled while down shifting. I'm not sure what your symptoms are other than a hot engine. but below is a thread i created
