This doesn't look correct to me. Advice please.

Yes it was beautiful here today sun shining about 75 or hotter

Well I blew the pilot air jets out all around and that seemed to do the trick. Rode most of the day and it's running great again. Went ahead and ordered a new filter so hopefully not have this problem again. Would be nice just to ride it for a change. Thanks for all the input hopefully this can...

I did rebuild them. Used everything but the seats. Like I said was spot on running great then sputter after I opened it up. I did look at the air filter better and the foam seal at the top is deteriorated im wondering if when I pulled all that air in if it pulled some foam from the filter...

I was thinking that was where the problem was because it seems like its a transition point and if it were a plugged pilot jet wouldnt my idle suffer? and yes checked voltage. I'm pretty sure it's in the carb

Did that yesterday all clear. Thats what has me so confused. All seems good but not!!

I broke the carbs down to the jet blocks pulled pulled jets out and cleaned them the bowls were spotless the tank is spotless it does seem to run well above 3000rpm and idles smooth at 1000rpm I just did the shot gun and took it for a quick spin I think it's better but I got cold and couldn't...

Im not sure where to post this I have a dillema. 1998 vmax 15000 miles was sputtering under load about 2500 to 3000 rpm then seem to clear when opened up so I pulled apart carbs yesterday everything looked good but I still blew through everything. Put It back together and it was running great...

We'll I solved it I have been waiting for my carb sync and it came today. They were way off not sure what somebody did to it but I got it dialed in and the smoke is gone. I am a happy camper

Does anyone live near Daytona beach that has a sync tool I can use? Thank you

Can it be done with motor in the bike?

Are valve seals common or a rarity on these bikes? Not sure if the bike ever sat for a long period of time with the miles on it. Any idea on cost of replacement?

Just a little above half way on sight glass. The bike does have a very strong gas smell when running everything is completely stock. With a small hiccup at about 1400 rpm

It smokes on every start. I think its oil burning darker color. had some oil in carbs when I cleaned them but air box was dry

I just bought a 98 with 14,000 miles ran a little rough assumed just carbs. I have cleaned and bike runs great but is now smoking upon start up maybe 3 secs then clears until I start it again. Im thinking valve seals but looking for opinions.
