Hey what’s up y’all I’m new here, most people call me snap. I have a 2001 Custom Road King. Ive owned it about six months now and I love it. This is not my first road bike but it is my first Harley! Anyway, its fuel injected and is cutting out when accelerating. Imma bout to take fuel pump assembly out and check filter and regulator and reg housing, is there anything else i should check and service fix and prevent any future fuel issues? Thanks I appreciate it.

Be sure to come to the games section. We have a lot of fun there and get to know (and joke around) with each other.
Now, back to business.
There will be an initiation having to do with a greased pig, a rope, and some hot sauce a little later today.
We have a ton of stuff here, like an excellent mechanical and technical section, Harley-Davidson videos uploaded by our members, humor, gun enthusiast, road trips, a food section, dark side section, great vendors, classifieds, regional activity, and a lot, a lot more.
Now, for my regular welcome to you...

You are in the “New Members Area” where you can introduce yourself and let us know what Harley Davidson bike(s) (if any) you ride/own.
If you have questions about engines, exhaust systems, audio issues, etc… then:
1) Please go to the upper corner and Roll Over “Forums”
2) Then come down to and Roll Over “Harley Davidson Tech & Mechanical Forum”
3) Then come down to the section that would be most appropriate for your question like Audio Systems, Engine Mechanical Topics, Exhaust System Topics, etc… and CLICK on the topic you have a question about.
You will find the knowledge here is EXCELLENT and these here mates are willing to help you in any way they can. ‘juss be careful. There are some “Trolls”, so I suggest just ignoring them ‘ole farts.
See you around HDF. Come often, we have a humor thread, game thread, and a LOT of other stuff.
Have A Great Day Mate,

Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan!
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding.
Good Luck!!

... ... Welcome from Hampton Roads Virginia... ...
Just in case you have not done both of these two important items!
Be sure to add an Avatar of your favorite shot in the USER set up for the small picture you will see in the top left corner of your post.
And most importantly a Signature Line in your USER set up for your bike model, year, and all the letters that Harley recognizes it with.
(See mine below my bike picture.)
This enables others to know your exact model if you ever ask a question or another member interested in it may ask you a question about it....
