What kind of bike was the 2001 Road King?
I traded up to a 2000 RK from a ’01 Dyna-Glide. The Dyna rode great (they are the best riding bikes H-D makes, aside from the touring bikes). I was considering a touring bike since most of my friends rode them and I decided to ride the Dyna to look at a RK about 30 miles away.
Is the road King 01 FLHR in good condition?
I’ve just recently come across an 01 FLHR with very low miles. The bike is in immaculate condition and the price is very good. I am *very* tempted, but before I do anything I’d like to ask what the differences are (if any) between the 01, 02, and 03 Road Kings.
What to do when your Harley starts stalling?
Start the bike cold. Mist the intake flanges with brake cleaner. If your bike’s idle drops, or the engine stalls, you have an intake leak. If this is the case, replace the intake seals along with the front & rear intake flanges. If the bike passes the intake test; have the dealer or your mechanic scan the m/c for possible codes.
Why does my Harley Davidson stall when I idle?
It always starts easily when cold and idles well, but after a few minutes, if I’m idling awhile to get out of my driveway, the idle will fall and the engine will threaten to stall. If it does stall it’s hard to get started again, I have to give it a little throttle to get it to start and stay running.
What kind of idle problem does a road King have?
Rough idle, Carbon fouling the plugs, backfiring, and it sounds like the fuel pump is dumping way too much fuel. It is an 01 Road King with PCM3-USB, Arlen Ness Big Sucker Intake and Wild Pig Slip On’s. Please help!

When did my Harley Davidson Roadking idle down?

How does the road king compare to this one?
How does the King compare to this one in your experience. Pros and cons etc. The biggest differences in the ’01 & the newer models is the stiffer, larger swingarm/axle, the addition of a cartridge in the front forks/ no air adjustment, & the Delphi FI system was new for ’02 (but yours is carbed, so it doesn’t matter).
Why does my motorcycle not start with the side stand down?
Newer bikes (and some older ones) may refuse to start with the side stand down. Along with all the other high-tech sensors that are on board, your motorcycle might have a built-in code that keeps the ignition from starting if your kickstand is engaged.
