Just arrived today. Sitting on my bench is a beautiful S&S cast aluminum 55mm intake for the M8. No more mofo cheap ass plastic intake.

This has me stumped, just for grins take the cover off and look @ the throttle plate, then start it with the cover off, see how it behaves
Also, unplug the connector to the throttle actuator, look closely at the pins, clean them good with alcohol, apply a bit of dilectric grease and plug it back in

My 2019 triglide idles at about 1000’ ( So did my 2011 and 2017) plus or minus and there’s no way I could tell 50 RPMs up or down unless I install a digital tachometer do you have one installed? And as far as the surging that is the 45° angle of the cylinders… almost like a Harley Davidson trademark.. Many motorcycle companies try to create that surging sound/feel but none successful…

Look on your LS lower frame leg, I believe the info on idle speed is on a sticker there

Thank you, by surging I can watch the tach literally moving up and down not in sound.
I have owned a few different motor configurations Harleys, but that’s not what I’m talking about. I wish it wasn’t so hard for me to post a video so you could see the tac fluctuate
Thank you
There is a metal purge tube on the top of the throttle body. It should have a rubber cap on it. Maybe it was damaged or knocked off during the air cleaner change. This will act like an intake leak.
