Bike wont keep running

[ArmyDynaRider]

I just came back from a month long trip.

I jumped on the bike the other day, it took a couple times to start but did eventually go though. I let the bike run for a little bit.

I went out for a little ride. I noticed that when i was sitting idle the bike would start to die. If i didnt keep feeding the engine gas the bike would start to die.

Got home and let the bike sit. Came back a little later. The engine popped and white smoke came out the air intake. I removed it to see inside, and there were a bunch of burns on the inside of the case.

At first the bike would at least run for a little while when i started it then it would die, when i didnt feed the engine, now it will start up and pretty much die instantly.

Here is a video of the bike when it would at least run for a little bit.

Any thoughts? Thank so much for the help, because it is needed.

Guess You might have to state what year Your bike is then maby You might get some response.
Had to edit this post to get this in here.
As stated in Your previous post You should do a formal introduction first and double posting for the same problem is kinda frowned upon too.

Sorry new to this whole forum thing.

The bike is a 2008 Dyna Fat Bob. The only thing that i have changed on the bike is the grips and a detachable sissy bar. Not much of a mechanic but i am learning in the process.

Next month will be 2 years on a Harley, and a lifetime to go.

6 years in the military, 1 to go
Stationed in Hawaii, so life isnt too bad, except cant ride too far.

3 things come to mind:

Pull the spark plugs, check them and replace them id slightly questionable.

Contaminated fuel.

Check with your dealership to see if your bike, (based in the VIN, the bike doesn;t have to be there) falls under the fuel pump recall they had.

I think You can do the check online from the H.D.website.
