carbs

In my never ending quest to continue to fine tune my carbs, I not sure whats causing what I would refer to a cough or missing at 6K . What happens is from about 5700 if I wack the throttle wide open, I get a quick stumble/cough/miss that clears right up. Sometimes it does it , sometimes it...

I have my 2000 Vmax that I bought about 2-1/2 yrs ago. I put the Holeshot exhaust on it and I bought Dale Walkers stage 1 kit when I purchased the exhaust. I never put the stage 1 kit in. Lazy, not enough time, {insert excuss here}. Ha ha It does run rich but pretty much runs great. It...

I have a friend who's job is machining, and this kind of stuff, he made me a suggestion to install lectron carbs on a v-max which he told me there are the best carbs on the market. Honestly i didnt know this brand and when i visited the lectron web site the is some serius stuff there. Any advice

I was posting on the v4hondabbs and telling them about my stripped a/f screw problems and what not when a guy on there says " PM me I have a good clean rack off a GREAT running bike with 2nd gear blown out." I pm him and ask what he was looking for out of them. He says that they go for about...

Over the weekend I swapped out the carbs on my Cal. bike with a set of 49-state bodies. I had completely disassembled them and swapped in all of my gaskets and jet blacks, needle jets, diaphragms. etc, and retained all of the 49-state jetting. The carbs I got were in great shape but I thoroughly...

banging my head against the wall... have the typical issue - can't come off choke without engine stalling, runs like poo, etc have done the full "shotgun" method approach, almost no difference at all. any suggestions? changed plugs, checked wires, fuel in bowls... just want to RIDE ;]

I cant get my carbs to pull gas into them?! I have checked all of the hoses from the gas tank exit through the fuel filter(was able to blow through). I even tested the fuel pump a couple of times by hooking up the plug and pumping gas into a jar. ALso i checked to see if maybe the...

I bought a set of carbs off ebay from a '05 Max mainly because I like to tinker. I have an '03 Vmax and the carbs look the same except for one thing. On the '05 there is a rubber hose connected to a port at the bottom of the carb that the choke lever is attached to. On my '03 Max carbs that port...

I picked up these neglected V Max carbs on C/List. They have been sitting a long time so I am in the process of disassembling everything, dipping everything in Berryman's, replacing buggered parts and hopefully make them whole once again. I was reviewing other threads and I see the PO replaced...

I bought used carbs from Jeff Huber who bought them from Sean. I don't know which jet kit is installed. The bike is and will remain stock except for Seans jet kit and airbox, but I believe Seans carbs are set up for a after market exhaust. I'm worried I'm running to lean. Or what condition...
