2011 Spyder RT Hesitation Running Down The Road

I have a 2011 Spyder RT SE5 that I just got a month ago and took it in to the dealer for th 12K checkup and they went all over it new plugs, oil change and all that goes with that. It ran better before they worked on it so I took it back and they then replace the rubber hoses and that helped a lot but when you are running down the road at between 62 and 68 mph it has a hesitation that comes and goes but its there the biggest part of the time. If you get above 75 then you don't notice it. Does anyone that this problem or have a answer for my problem. I love the bike but hate the foot heat and this hesitation.​

I studied at the school where the thought was "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". That was pushin' 70 years ago. I tried the other way, took my vehicle to the dealer to have the scheduled service completed and it was returned in worse condition than when they got it. And guess who was stuck with the cost of restoring it? ME, of course. Additional parts and of course additional flat rate labor charges. From that day on, the only preventative service my vehicles get is oil changes and tire rotations. Everything else can wait until it breaks.

So, there you have it.......
