I have a California Sporty 1200 06 the problem I was having was just as if the Rev limiter was kicking in at 2000 RPM. The fix was on the other side of the gas tank is a gas vent with a hose that went to a one way (let gas fumes out but not let air in) that $5.00 part was stuck closed which caused all the problems. I almost spent $250.00 on a I.C.M. that I did not even need. California really sucks ( Leave your smog crap off my bike!) Thanks Scott Eyer

I did talk to J.P. Tech Support & they agreed it is the Ing. Module & that on Harleys they go bad all the time. I think I will be buying the Dyna 2000TC P/N 382-290 It just cost more & more to ride my Harley Thanks Scott

I have a problem that just started for no reason-- it Idles fine put it in 1st & at 2800 RPM it starts cutting out (like no gas) in 2nd it starts cutting out at 2500 RPM then 3rd at 2000 RPM I have changed the plugs, wires, coil & no help which leaves the ICM my bike has been sitting out (covered) for the last 10 days & it has been very hot as in 120 everyday. & it dose cut out like the rev limiter is kicking in. Also before this it rode great & I have made no changes. Any Help

Thanks for all the input -- I am just going to ride my Sporty like it is. A much bigger problem down the road is the state of California ( which has no money) Tried to start Smog Testing for all Bikes from 2000 to new -- Thankfully that was shot down this time but I think the time will come which will make it a bear switching the parts back to past the smog test every other year. But it has not happened yet Thanks Scott Eyer

My Bike ( O6 SPORTY 1200C Last year before H.D. changed to F.I.) is Running Well but I would like more speed (Pass those Spotster Haters ) I payed my Harley Tax & just looking what to do next? is it worth it to install a H.P. Ignition on it? I know I would move the Rev-limter up to 6000 RPM maybe a little more Or should I save money up to install some H.P. Cams??? P.S. Can you smoke the rear wheels on a 1200 ? is it by just holding on to the front brake??? THANKS FOR THE HELP--- P.S.---Or I Just

Thanks I fixed it the problem was at the top of the oil cover there is another cover that guids the dip stick in. Mine was bent which let oil out each time I hit a bump. After 23 miles of freeway riding the side of my bike was coverd with oil the lt side tire ,Rim,chain Gard, swingarm. & I am doing 80-MPH not even knowing x

Yet another problem just got a new master cyl for the rear & now I have oil that leaks from the top where the cap is . I have tried 2 caps & still the same problem also I did cleaner out the air cleaner no oil there so I don"t know what to try next. I know it is not leaking from the bottom or sides or from the air cleaner the oil just rolls down from the cap & the oil level is mid way on the stick. Maybe I have 2 bad Oil Caps???? Thanks ( as soon as I get one problem fixed I have

I have been working on this problem ( rear brakes) for the better part of 2 weeks so I took it to H.D. to get it fixed--- The Problem was the Rear Master CYL. is bad !!! I just can't wait to get it back & ride-- I really don't like working on my bike just Riding it !!!! Thanks For All Your Help !!!

I had the same problem-- It turns out the spark plug was shorting out on one cyclinder ( the boot was to short)

I had someone tell me not to ever buy a bike-car-truck that was made from Nov though Jan. because this is when the workers are thinking about other things & this is when most of the lemons are built thanksgiving-though New Years. My was built in NOV. & I have had my fair shair of problems, like a Bad Rear Master Cylender that should last for 1,000's of miles & mine goes out with just 5K on it.
