    Idle adjustment screw stripped - Any ideas besides C4?

    Thanks for looking in - While doing the shotgun repair, I found one of the idle screws was partially stripped and now it is stripped all the way! I've never messed with them the 13 years I've owned the bike so I'm thinking it is in the right position but when it wasn't so stripped and I seemed...

    Bleed screw cover help...

    Awhile back I got help identifying the clutch bleed screw and was told that there was normally a cover over it. Today I finally paid the ridiculous price of $21.00 for the screw and rubber cover (they don't sell just the cover). I can't figure out how this should go on. It looks simple but...

    Screw size for choke linkage

    Anybody know what the machine screw size is for the little set screw that ties the choke arm linkage to the carb. I have noticed that since I have had the bike, it drags 1 cylinder a bit on a cold start, running with the choke. I just figured out why, the left front cylinder has no set screw...

    stock air/fuel screw settings please

    I need to clean out my a/f screws and ports because it's a little hesitant. I'd like to know the stock setting for them. I saw someone had theirs set 3 turns out so I wasn't sure if that was stock or not. Anyway, other than this little problem the bike is road ready. There's a starter from an...

    Idle mixture screw hole is covered, how to get it out?

    I have everything taken part on the carbs but I can't get the idle mixture screw out for the hole is covered. I know I could drill it out but would feel stupid if there was an easy way to get it out and not having to do that. I've attached a picture of what I'm talking about, how do I get that...

    Need help to identify this screw!

    Hey guys. I tore down my max last Aug, and am FINALLY getting it buttoned back up. Did a 1300 swap, carb clean/rebuild, and tons of powder coating. So after having everything apart for so long, I can't remember how the Vboost linkage is supposed to go for sure. And this screw I'm almost...

    Mixture screw threads

    I'm having some trouble getting the mixture screws to properly seat in 2 of my carbs. One side will thread in a few turns and then gets difficult to turn, the other will not even catch. I took an LED flashlight and looked at them and it looks like the threads need to be cleaned up. Does anybody...

    #2 mixture screw off from factory?

    Well the dirty carb ***** finally bit me! Took the day off to go on a ride with the wife, and about 5 minutes into it, the bike develops a slight miss and pop at steady throttle. After about 10 minutes, it goes away and then comes back about 2 hours later. I took the advice here and let the...

    I knew I had a screw loose

    ok I have been riding my bike for 3 years thinking that a carb tune is coming very soon. I've had a problem under full throttle from 6000 where it like coughs then continues to accelerate but never seemed to have the power my first vmax had. Ok I am blaming this on old age and the fact I just...

    Carb Slide and Retaining Screw

    While rebuilding my carbs, I discovered that the bottom of my slide on one carb was cracked and the retainer screw that holds the needle was stripped. I've priced the items from a place I order parts, and the best I can find is $89.00 for the slide and $20.00 for the complete needle assembly...

    Stuck scoop screw

    I went to take the left side off and stripped the allen head. It's so tight that it even snapped my easy out tool. What type of drill bit do I need to drill the whole thing out? The gold bits I have won't go through the snapped easy out.

    Mikuni carb air/fuel mixture screw tap size?

    One of the carbs on my 85 max has a screwed up air/fuel mixture tread in the carb. I measured the pitch and it is .5(really fine pitch), But I am not sure the size. I think it is 6mm. Anybody had this problem. I can only get the air fuel screw down about 2.5 turns, so I know the threads in the...
