a bad kickstand switch would do that I think | ||

That would be my guess. That or a TPS reset? Maybe the race kit was installed by the previous owner and he didn't know it would need one. I would certainly explore the kickstand switch route first though. | ||

When I got my bike I had the same problem. HD adjusted the kickstand switch and no more stalling. That is my guess. After it happens, put down the kickstand and put it back up and see if it happens. | ||

Just friggin remove the switch,if you can remember to put it up when you leave. I simply connected the wires together! |
