carbs

for $1,200 on a set of used keihin flat side carbs, according to pic. it comes with 4 39 mm flat side carbs. that come with intake boots, mounts..... is that a rip off?? seller says they are over $2,500 new. doesn't sound right, i can get a dual quad intake with carbs for my mopar for $2,500.

I have got my carbtune today is there a master carb to adjust the others too?

Carbs 85-07 same? Are the stock Carbs the same from the 85-07? Looking to pick up a spare set to rebuild. Rejetting and to learn as I go, instead of trial and error with the ones on my 02 now.:punk: Thanks, Jason

HI Everyone! I have 2006 VMAX pretty much stock other than cobra exhaust that I drilled out.:eusa_dance: I have pick up Vgas carb kit from ebay for 1k, half price, and now i really wonder if that was good idea? I like the look of the carbs and I was thinking to go with ram air scoops from...

Took my new to me 2003 out for a short jaunt(5 miles) today. The purpose was mainly to get the bike from interim storage to my garage.; but it did raise a couple questions. #1 It started right up but there was a lot of snap, crackle, pop(no flames) and didn't want to idle. Once it got warmed...

So.. I was having terrible cold start issues.. pretty bad lag when I goosed the throttle... and super erratic idle... I had bought the carbtune pro... and decided it was time to check the carbs... GEEZE were they way off... the no 3 carb had almost zero vaccuum... the rest were all over the...

I know there are many threads related to this subject as I spent days reading them. I decided to start a new thread as I want to get some feedback specific to this situation. So I recently performed Shotgun, changed clip on needles from 2nd groove to 3rd groove. I also changed spark plugs and...

OK carb experts - just rebuilt all cabs & reinstalled. I didn't eyeball a synch or anything, just put it back together. It runs, but a bit on the rough side with a bit of coughing & some fluctuating idle. Question - is that kinda normal before synch'g & fine tuning or should I be looking for an...

Hi, I just bought Seans Jet kit. Do I have to remove the carbs to clean the inside and rejet or can i do while it's still on the motor? Thanks!

Round two I set floats using caliper method on bench upside down on bench all set to 1.117 as pictured in rebuild guides reassemble on bike do a wet check and everything was off wtf Cyl/mm wet 1/16 2/15...

Well it started about a month ago bike started missing to the point of shutting off After it sat for a few min it started and made it back home so I cleaned out fuel line and pump with air ran great till this morning it happened again I pulled over and cycled fuel pump a few times till it...

Im sure this is a frequently asked question and if it is, im sorry i couldnt find it. I did search with no results. Anyway. I turned the key on today and heard a clicking sound. Clicked about 5 times, pqused for about 15 seconds and repeats. Even when the bike is running it does this. Ive only...

I haven't posted much in the forums but I do read a lot of the helpful posts here. Wanted to say thanks yukonerdave for the awesome write up on the fuel pump diaphragm fix, and richwrench for the carb sync tool its awesome and works great. Here's my problem I have an 88 vmax it fires up descent...

I'm not really familiar with how flat side carbs are meant to sound, so I'm not sure if the sound my bike is making is normal. The carbs "tap" when idling (which is normal) but seem to make a bit of the same tapping noise except louder at a particular rev range (around 3k). Is this normal?

I recently bought a rebuilt VMax with 2003 running gear on a 1988 frame, and lots of upgrades including a PCW 1500 Tourmaster engine with 39mm flat side carbs. It's a beautiful machine and pushes 163bhp etc. The carbs are great and bring a lot of extra power, but have left the little scallops...

I'm sure this has been posted before at some point, but I found this in the youtubiverse. Pretty good explanation, I think. http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=wyspAHrMbb8&feature=endscreen

Hey guys, I've been enjoying my Vmax for the past 5 months until the gearbox broke down and I had to park it for a while until I got it fixed. Now my problem is, and this has been going on since I bought it, it runs a very low mile per gallon, and by low I mean from full tank to fuel light...

Looks like the carbs are leaking from the float bowl drain screws. I see some fuel on the boots below the carbs. Anyone know what size the o rings are on the drain screw? Took advantage of a beautiful day and rode to a meeting for work. Dont want to take it apart here in the parking lot...
