Sounds like bad gas to me. Did you put in ethanol, the way they mix it is not exact. You never really no what % it is. I never use it.

I'm pretty sure that I put in 93 octane. That's what I always use. I will test the spark plugs this morning when I get off work. I may go and try to find a tester if it's not too expensive. I'm not to confident about holding the plug against the bike to watch the spark. Do I just leave it in the wire and hold it against the frame or motor itself?
I don't think it's an air problem. How would I test that. I believe air is getting in fine. Throttle works fine. I have a stage 1 screaming eagle air filter on it. I don't think their is an exhaust leak, but haven't really tested for it. Exhaust system seems to be fine.
And yes I have been throwing parts at it, but small parts that would be included in a turn up like plugs and filter. I got codes for the TPS and cam timing sensors so I replaced those.

I am not sure with the newer ignitions, but I do not think it is done the old way anymore. A gizmo has to be had to check for spark now. Maybe someone knows what it is.

A friend of mine has an 07 Road King. It died on him without warning. Couldn't figure anything out. sent it to the dealer and they unhooked the fuel line from the tank, (it's a quick coupler) and cleaned it a little and snapped it back on and wala he was back in business. It seems they get stopped up from time to time. Maybe that's your problem.
