If anyone comments on my driving, I'll cry

I would pull those carbs and give them a good cleaning.

your gaz is too old

Spoiler alert: there were many problems, but the ultimate one that kept the bike from running was accidentally swapped main jets. The customer got rid of this bike months ago, so I will never see it again, but I’m told that it’s running great and being ridden regularly. 👌🏻

At least honda had the balls to come out with a chopper style bike from the factory, while everyone else did it after the fact ❤

Just got around to watching this one. Can’t believe it came back to life so easily. Really can’t kill these CX motors. Good job

What brand of seat is that?

If I have a bike like this, the first thing I would do, if this hadn't been done already, is attach a fuel level gauge to each of the bowls while the carburetor is installed on the bike and see where the actual fuel level is. And if you can get the bike to be running while the fuel level of each bowl is being checked, so much the better. My guess is that the fuel level is way, way above where it should be. Adjust float level as necessary. That would be just the start. If that doesn't work, return the bike as much as possible to stock condition. There's been so much tinkering with this bike that it's impossible to figure out the main issue, or combination of issues. Also, hyperchargers may look cool, but I don't believe they do anything for the bike that would justify the expense.

You need to sync the carburetors

That bike should have stock jets With that set up low speed 17.5 primaries 115f-117b.

great video, keep up the good work. and Happy Birthday

Ended up being carb needed rebuilt runs esculent now

I love to hate these bikes. I have built and rebuilt them from the frame up. It’s so hard to find or locate a problem when you’re not seeing everything.

Have you tried the air/fuel mixture screws? They may be too too far in to idle. Have you balanced the carbs?? Neither was addressed in the video. Are you running the stock air box? There may be an air leak. Did you mix the main jets? the rear carb has

Change the fuel pump….its not regulating.

Fuel pump pushing fuel past the float needle?

I guess I’m gonna do a thorough carb job been messing with this issue for a month now same problem

Ok I watched the second video. I am exactly where you’re at. Did you ever happen to find out the fix Sherwood appreciate the info your vids were great.

Ok I’m I’m having some of same issues. It’s running on both cinders but front engine gas running through to exhaust pipe any suggestions

So I just bought a 2006 vstar 1100 and I bought the bike running and trailered it home it started the first time at home but ran into a similar problem but also I can’t get it to start ignition makes a noise but nothing else

What did you use to set your float level?

I can't take any more of this " tinkering". The floats are definitely sticking or float level messed up. Keep cranking it while playing with the throttle and you will be replacing a starter clutch

Your float needles are not seating right. They are not sealing off the flow of gas when the float raises up. Did you check the floats and make sure there was no gas in them? Even a pin hole in a float allows fluid in them and they will not shut off the gas flow. Your fuel pump always priming is the giveaway either the floats are bad or the needles are not sealing off with the float.

Synchronize the carbs!

I live at 6000 ish feet and changed my stock 90 jets to 86 on my 650. She run great now

👊👍

I have very strong feelings about those pod filters. One question. How dare you? OKMB4Life

With gas that old having been run through the carbs, my bet is a piece of trash was holding the needle off the needle seat just enough so that the valve didnt close causing the flooding issue. Those carbs needed to be cleaned bad.

👊👍

Am I missing something here.. You checked clearances and did the carbs. right !? The problem is somewhere in those areas I would imagine ..

Give it to me, I’ll have it up and kicking in no time…….patience my son patience.

Well the fuel pump is not working as it should. You can hear it trying to prime itself every time. That much gas from the exhaust means there is constant gas flow. Are the gas lines to and from the pump the wrong way around?. The easy way to isolate the problem is to bypass the gas tank and fuel pump. Just feed gas directly to the carbs and see what happens.

My bet is the needles have something on them preventing the needle seat from fully closing. And my bet is when the carbs were cleaned the needles were overlooked as was the needle seats. I had the same issue with mine when i got it.

Regulator/rectifier terminal? I've just tried to start my VN750 and met some problems with it. Checked regulator resistances (according to manual) and found out - my regulator is dead. Also I'd check high voltage wires from coils to spark plugs and coils (sometimes it works on high rpm and cause pain in ... at low rpm).

👊👍

Did you adjust the idle ?

sounds like stuck floats

Float is prob stuck and dirty carbs.

Needs carbs gone through

👊👍

👊👍

*Spoiler Alert* I’m not actually giving up on this rude boi, just relocating it

Did you check compression? Maybe maladjusted valves? Timing Issue?

👊👍

Glad to see it was salvageable! I'm always looking forward to the next episode of the 500s, keep em coming

👊👍

I love those gold wheels!

What was the length you ended up with? 257mm? I have a rod which is 256mm and I have the same problem you mentioned on the forum
