SOURCE: 2009 Street glide idles poorly, strong gas smell, stalls

The 09 models come with a "parade" mode which causes the rear cyclinder to quit firing when idling in traffic etc to combat over heating. You should be able to kick it on by rolling the throttle grip FORWARD for 5 to 10 seconds. Have you changed the pipes or air filter? If you have and never had the EFI adjusted (either factory download or fuel tuner installed) your bike could be running extra rich causing the over heating and eventual engine destruction. New Harleys run rich from the factory, any changes to the intake/exhaust system without proper fuel injection management will cause overheating. Try getting your bike into parade mode by rolling the throttle forward to the stops for a few seconds, that will cool things down.

Both Key fobs for 2014 HD Street Glide Special not recognized. Asks for pin which I don't have

Check you batteries in the key fobs and make sure you insert them correctly. You should NOT be able to read the info on the battery when inserted correctly. The plus + side will face the case not the printed circuit.

I have a 2015 street glide special. I put a 21" wheel on and would like to lower the front end back to the stock Height. It there any issue with simply moving the fork tubes up into the triple trees?

Fender clearance will be an issue. You will have to raise the fork tubes one halt the differance of the wheel sizes. As far as I can remember, stock wheel is 18". this means you will have to raise the tubes 1.5" to lower bike back to stock height. Use two pull down straps to pull the shocks down while opserving clearance on the fender. Also, your rake and trail will change due to different wheel size and may effect the overall handling of the bike. Drive carefully first few miles to check this out.
