I believe there was a recall on the 2007 for exactly that problem (something to do with the clips breaking on the fuel line causing that exact problem).
Good luck!

I may be wrong but it sounds alot like a fuel tank venting problem,this may be blocked or not letting enough air into the tank to replace the fuel you have used,this causes a vacuum and the fuel cant flow from the tank to the carbs,after you stop the suction will stop ,letting the fuel flow back to the carbs,check this and see how you go,(i had similar problem on my katana,i just popped the gas cap and problem went away) i later found the vent to be blocked....hope this helps

My 2009 road glides' check engine light comes on intermittently. the dealer had it twice. the second time for 3 days. they removed the fairing and checked all wiring and found nothing. Then rode it for 80...

my friend has a 08 road king, and even though i told to not to use the kill switch he does. this caused him to twist the throttle too far forward when he shuts it down and makes the fly by wire system act up.
