Off-idle stumbles, rough running

V-Twin Forum https://www.v-twinforum.com > threads > off-idle-stu...
May 24, 2007 - The subject of rough running and stumbles just off idle (0% to 7% TP) seems to be common to all the tuning methods--SERT, DTT, TMAT.

Need to know what your air cleaner is like, what your running fuel pressure is and what your battery voltage is like and then you are a long ways towards a solution.

It must be something about oil pressure. Or there is massive oil leek so you are on low oil level again or something with oil pump or filter.

Your 98 Low Rider is a head breather and in stock configuration, the vent is directed into the air filter. It is typical of a little oil to come out of the breather but if it was a lot and it's continuous, you may have a problem. The first thing I'd check is the "umbrella vlaves" in the center rocker box plate. Over the years they'll get hard and fail to seal. Just take the rocker box covers off and replace the valves and the gaskets. No problem.

I'd go buy a can of that "in the tank" carburetor and fuel injector cleaner and pour some in the fuel tank along with some fresh fuel. If this doesn't clear up your problem. A complete disassembly and cleaning of the carb may be called for.

The latter part sounds like insufficient play on the clutch lever--the clutch seems to be slipping. Sudden power loss is usually linked to the ignition system. Have you checked the lube level in the transmission? You could be having a bearing seizure if the lube is low.
