well OP, have you changed the fuel filter? checked for sumping? what about the clogged cat, have you got one?
the suspense is killing me.
Now you guys that avoid 4000 rpm, what is that all about? stock these are around 5800 max, stage 1 @ 6200. are you telling me that you shift below 3000 and ride like the proverbial old lady driver. It may not be a crotch rocket but the power band is 3500-4500 for acceleration purposes.
good grief if you don't hit the rev limiter once per month you void the warranty!

Dam. Im a wuss. i hardly ever go over 3k. these bikes are pigs compared to a 11k reving single cylinder 450 mx bike. I feel like my bike is gonna blow up over 3k. guess ill run with scissors and rev her up. i always figured the rev limiter was set around 3500 on the harleys. guess i was wrong.

Okay everyone. The verdict is finally in. Fuel filter was bad. Understand I am not a mechanic and took this bike to local harley dealer and others and not one person said filter. My riding buddy suggested I put the issue on here and said I would find some great answers and suggestion. It just goes to prove what kind of community HD Forums really is and I cannot thank you all enough.

Have you not read the original post regarding my issue? The bike was very slow and would not rev past 4K. I have wanted to be able to hit the rev limiter but bike would not go there. Now that the issue is fixed and I have the PC V back on it we can go to 6,200 if needed. Trust me is was a boring ride before but not now. Lol
