Yesterday (Thursday) I road her to work, going out after work, and home (~40mi) just fine, nothing out of the ordinary. Figured I was in the clear and it was just some freaky coincidence the day before
What causes a Harley Davidson to lose all power?
This can be caused by a loose neck or loose spokes (models w/spoke rims). Check your neck and tighten if nessacary. Also, can be caused by a bad wheel bearing. My first thought would be to load test the battery. 10v is low and if it he only gets a clicking when trying to start, that’s one sign of a bad battery.

When does idle come back to normal on a Harley Davidson?
Just seems to happen when I’ve been running at a fairly wide open throttle maintaining higher speeds for a while (fwy) or longer stints (catching all green lights) on the streets at a speed of about 45 or more. It always seems to come back to a normal idle after getting back into first gear when stopped, or when I start going again in 1st.
