I'm having that problem now, and to make things worse, I took the V&H air cleaner off to remove the residual oil on the backing plate and reinstalled the air cleaner and now it will not idle, and if it does idle it is way low. If i ride it, and down shift, it pops alot when i'm off the gas. I made no adjustments to anything, I just cleaned the oil up! :small3d023:

If you have added any oil, it may be over full or there may be a problem with the scavenging side of the oil pump, possibly a misalignment of the oil pump too may cause this. Also check the breather tubes for obstructions.

it was running fine before i wiped up the oil. I have an Arlen Ness big sucker on it with a K&N filter on it. I know that the oil does vents up there from the top of the heads so a little oil is normal. Maybe I'll let Harley figure it out.
