I have noticed that if I am quick enough, I can shift to neutral and it will smooth out after about 30 seconds. If it does stall before I do this. I find that when I restart. It runs fine. This seems to be a common problem based on what I read from other riders on this site. The bike is brand new with 12,000 miles. Guess im just gonna have to live with it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
My essentially stock 06 has 25,000 miles on it. It has never done what you describe. I'd check with the tech freaks on 1130cc or just take it in and have it dynoed and get a fresh map. A map for a Power Commander and V&H big bores should be easy to get from 1330cc.
