carbs

Hi all! I have a 98 runs great and I am ready to do some mods. I just ordered VooDoo exhaust and I am considering doing a carb kit and K&N filters. I live in Colorado and have been told to not do the carb kit.... due to our elevation. Any Ideas??? :ummm:

Hello everyone I inherited an 85 vmax that has been sitting up for about 10 years. Unfortunately had a few rounds the ethanol in it then parked..... I've replaced gas tank, fuel lines, filters among other things and now I'm in the market for a full set of carbs for this thing. After soaking...

Actually just need the right rear carb body.

As the title states I ordered 4 rebuild kits which consisted of O-rings and fuel inlet bodies/valves. I noticed the new inlet valves are stiffer then the original ones (figured the originals were worn) and they hold the floats in the low position when turned upside down. This is uncharted...

My 2000 is running badly, carb issues i think. I saw that sometimes the carbs don't seat in the boots properly and you get a vacuum leak. Put a hose on a propane torch to get the gas near the boots to see if the idle changed. It seem to change but fluctuating idle is part of my symptoms. So i...

I just purchased my first vmax last weekend . It's a 06 with a stage 7 and supertrapp exhaust . It seems to have a hard time at idle and I was reading you need an experienced mechanic to sync your carbs with a stage 7 kit . I live in the suburbs of Chicago and would like to know is there any...

Hello, I'm having trouble getting a good reading on my carb sync tool. Someone suggested that if the carbs weren't seated, they would give me bouncy reading. I took a picture or each carb and was hoping if someone with a better eye than me could tell me if they are seated correctly. Thanks...

Will 2004 r6 carbs work on 2001 vmax

I have an 83 venture. New to me a few months ago. Felt sluggish and I wondered if carbs were plugged etc. I've been working a lot, guy on Craigslist was advertising to do bike repairs so I sent it to him. Never again trusting anyone else to fix my bike. Guy found 2 issues with my bike...

Pulled the carbs on an 01 Vmax project ive been working on (previous owner let it sit for 5-6 years), cleaned em out and replaced parts with fresh carb kits. Everything is back together and running, she pulls great right up until about 4k. It doesnt die, but the power band drops off...

Hey guys, need some advice. I had the carbs on my other Max (1996) cleaned and rebuilt about 1 1/2 years ago, and they've been sitting in a plastic bag in a box since then (all sorts of family issues). A few days ago, I was getting ready to put them back on the bike, when I noticed that the...
