Default UPDATE COUGHING, SPUTTERING

I HAVE AN UPDATE ON MY 06 R/K. WELL AFTER DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM SINCE APRIL I FINALLY GOT HER FIXED. THE STEALER HAD BEEN TELLING ME THAT THE BIKE COMES LEAN FROM THE FACTORY AND NOTHIN THEY CAN DO. HAD THE BIKE THERE 3 TIMES !!. I GOT PISSED AND AND CALLED HARLEY MOTO CORP. I SPOKE WITH A REP AND TOLD HIM HOW I ALMOST WAS KILLED TWICE AND THAT THE DEALER SAYS NOTHIN THEY CAN DO. HE WAS TAKEN BACK BY THIS. I TOLD HIM I WAS GOING TO ANOTHER DEALER THE NEXT DAY FOR ANOTHER OPINION. HE SAID HE WAS SORRY AND THAT THE DEALER I WAS SPEAKING WITH WAS TOTALLY WRONG AND THAT HE WOULD MAKE SURE MY BIKE WAS FIXED OR I WOULD GET A NEW ONE. HE CALLED THE NEW DEALER AND TOLD THEM HE WANTED TO KNOW EVERYTHING THAT WAS GOING ON WITH MY BIKE. HE SAID HE WOULD GIVE THEM STEPS TO FOLLOW. SURE ENOUGH HE DID. WHEN I WALKED IN I WAS TREATED LIKE A KING. OK, I HAVE THE NEW 25 DEGREE INJECTORS, THEY RE-MAPED THE COMPUTOR AND SET THE INJECTORS BACK TO THE 8 DEGREE SETTING. MAN, WHAT A CHANGE. NO MORE PROBLEMS!!! THE BIKE RUNS SMOOTH AND SEEMS TO HAVE BETTER PICK-UP. H/D REP CALLED BACK AT SEE HOW EVERYTHING WAS. I THANKED HIM OVER AND OVER. HE SAID THEY ARE FINDING THAT SETTING THE NEW 25'S AT THE 8 DEGREE SETTING SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH EVERY BIKE. THANKS FOR THE ADVISE GUYS,CALLING H/D MOTO REALLY WAS WHAT GOT ME FIXED UP. I HOPE THIS WILL HELP ANY OF YOU THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. ANY QUESTIONS YOU CAN CALL H/D MOTO CORP AND THEY WILL HELP YOU OUT. DON'T LET STEALERS TELL YOU THAT YOU HAVE TO BUY PIPES,A PC111 BLA BLA ...MAKE THEM FIX IT!!
