What to do about a bad ECM on a Harley Davidson?

Discovered an intake leak, replaced with new gaskets/rings and cleaned injectors using a Fuel Injecter ultrasonic (or whatever the thing is called) machine,…no fix but the bike ran way better than before but when got up to hot, same problem reoccurred. I am down to now having to take it to dealer for diagnostic test on Coil and ECM.

What does a Harley Davidson BCM do-trike talk?

It uses this both to detect if the vehicle is being disturbed for security, and to detect if the vehicle is tipped over. As noted, it DOES NOT work for Trike. On factory Trikes MY18 and prior, there is an additional Bank Angle Sensor (BAS) that tells the BCM if the trike is tipped or not.
