Went for a ride today. The bike was running awsome. Than a total loss of power. Kept stalling on restarts, bogged down when you hit the throttle. I had all I could do to get her home. Coolant is fine, Could not find any cracks in the exhaust, A/C is new , PCV was still hooked up. What could it be?
 
Check cables on battery terminals.

Had a similar thing about three weeks ago. Turned out negative cable terminal was loose.
 
Thanks. Just checked the battery cables. They were fine. Back to the drawing board.
in addition to the two cables on the battery, there are several grounding lugs throughout the bike. You need to check those as well.

1-Battery to Front Head.

2-Multiple eye-lugs coming from the main harness along the upper LEFT frame rail to bolts on each of the engines heads.

3-bottom of engine rear oil pan screw to lower frame cross member.

4-(IIRC) Rear sub-fender under the cosmetic tin, there may be another eye-lug
