Hello Team and pardon my ignorance.
2008 Softail Rocker with 22,000. I got it used with 20,000 six months ago. Use it as my daily rider and commute bike around the City and Bar hopper.
Most of the time I ride 5MPH - 10MPH above the speed limit.
Last night was coming from a meeting with friends around 2:00AM and not a soul on the freeway. I decided to push the limits and see what the bike is capable. When I ride on the city I normally accelerate very hard and the bike feels very well planted and pulls hard. Last night everything was fine until I hit 90MPH and the bike starts to hesitate like if is running out of gas. It was very small hesitation but enough to make me get out of the freeway. The bike felt like 90MPH was the top speed and not able to go faster. Is this normal? I just switch the gas from premium to plus in my last two refills and have not see any difference. Bike has a Vance & Hines exhaust and the HDSE Heavy Breather.
No fuel management module. Was thinking that maybe is the sparkplugs and cables. Any ideas? Thank you very much.
