Default Hesitate spit and sputter Grr....

Got my Bones back from the safety recall fix and noticed a hesitation on slow and steady acceleration. Attributed to some bad gas and didn’t think much of. Ran it to the fuel light came on and filled it with new gas. At the same time noticed the fuel pump sounded loud and slow. Fired her up and left the gas station and sounded like it starving for fuel in first gear headed home and I could hear the fuel pump over the motor. Going to check the bat voltage and then drop her off at the dealer. Hopefully they will have her done by Wed as I have a 1500 mile ride planned. Least it didn’t happen in the Upper UP on my ride. I guess my planned weekend ride to the Bikini bike wash wont be happening. Will have to come up with something else to do Will update!
