every once in a while after sitting at a red light, as soon as i twist the throttle, i get a cough, or pop that you can feel coming up threw the air cleaner. i use to work as a parts guy for the service dept for my local harley dealership and had one of my techs reset the tps on it before i left. still, the same problem.
 
A breather re-route and an open airbox mod would probably take most of that away.....

Search around on here there is a lot of info on either of these mods....
 
I still had that problem with mine after the breather reroute. Only until I had xopti make me a tune, did it stop. Not sure what he changed, but it seems to be something in the ecm from my experience.
 
Yeah, everyone has different experiences with the reroute, but overall there is an improvement, if only slightly. But it's worth doing, if not just to keep the residue out of your airbox & intake. I think regional issues come into play with the reroute also.

Afterwards, you're right, nothing can compare to a custom tuning.
