Engine stutter

Hi guys, I have a 2006 dyna super glide 1450, which has developed an intermittent stutter after around 15km or so of riding. I can accelerate out of it and it disappears for a while however returns.
Have had the bike checked and no fault codes appear, run injector cleaner additive with no success it still coughs every now and then. I have even removed the O2 sensors as I have had success getting rid of these with other bikes, plugs changed etc.
Anyone had similar issues with their machines, any help appreciated.
Cheers, Ron

Right, it's not a lot, it had 02's you say, 06 dynas in Oz didn't have them from the factory, I know, I brought an 06 wide glide when they came out, so that tells me someone fitted them as the wiring was there just not the sensors, so it's been tuned to some degree as you have to flash a calibration with closed loop in it to make use of the 02's, you get anything with the bike?

It has a Dyna Fuelpack fitted under the seat, the bike has run great since I bought it in 2016.
I think the previous owner imported it from the States around 2010.
The bike has been looked at by a reputable Harley mechanic and he could not fault it when ridden, it ran great for about a week then the problem returned that is when I removed the O2 sensors and fitted the plug ins that make the ecu think they are still there and the same ran good for a while then the symptoms returned.
Could it be the injectors🤔

Ok, sounds like it's not the tune side then, funny you should mention injectors, mine developed an intermittent stutter, not always there but sometimes mostly there, no codes, checked everything I could think of, I changed the fuel filter, you done that yet? Just on years it would probably be filthy, anyway I digress, turned out it was a broken wire in the injector harness right up near the plug, I had to pull on the wires to find it, years on cat trucks taught me that, you pull sort of gentle firm and if it keeps coming she broken, a pic of the culprit.

I changed the fuel filter when the petcock was leaking and renewed.
Will check the wiring for a high resistance open circuit on the injectors.
Really appreciate your help mate, the issue is niggling me.
Cheers

No wuckas, one more thing, the 06 came out with 8° injectors, they gave issues, the fix was the 25° injectors, same part number but the 25° number ends in 06A instead of 06, have a gander, maybe?
