  1. Carbs & Fuel System
    So I put the bike together tonight and turned on the gas and immediately the carb started hemorrhaging fuel. See pics. I am assuming it's the floats but am not that knowledgeable. Also, should the petcock flow freely without the bike cranking or running? It does just wondering if something...
  2. Carbs & Fuel System
    I've been putting some time into my vulcan. Prior to getting it. The motorcycle had been sitting in a dusty shop with old fuel for the better of 6 years. Thankfully most of the fuel was in the tank and not the carbs. A while back we were trying to start it up before I hauled it home and were...

    Is there someone that got a carburator with number V147 YB15 for sale? Need the one that goes to the front cylinder if there is any difference between them.

  6. Carbs & Fuel System
    My '03 Vulcan is a little hard to crank but idles and revs great but as soon as the clutch starts to engage the tack just drops while the bike doesn’t move or barely jerks when the clutch is released. The engine runs great but with no power. It even revs up fast. It started last week...

    It looks like my bike needs a new carburetor, so I am out searching for one and would like to know what my options are. I have a 2001 vn750 and would like to know what other year carbs would be compatible with mine. If someone has a list, it would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
  10. Carbs & Fuel System
    I'll start from the beginning. I am a new to motorcycles and decided I wanted to purchase a bike. Found a 2001 vn750 on craigslist so I went to check it out. I liked it so bought it. Before the purchase I asked the guy to turn the bike on and off, ride it around, rev the engine etc. It...

My father in law's honda rebel sat for 4yrs never started or moved:hitanykey. took the fuel line off the petcock, using a funnel ran seafoam straight into carbs and cranked the bike...it took about 5 mins of trying (keep in mind you have to keep blipping the...
  13. Carbs & Fuel System
    My bikes been running really rough it just doesnt idle right. it starts up no problem but then you have to keep blipping the trottle or leave the choke open. it also sounds like the bike is starving for gas even when holding the throttle open at a steady rpm, misses while riding, and sometimes...
  14. Carbs & Fuel System
    I was wondering if anyone had any info on the compatability of carb parts through the years? I'm shopping for replacement slide diaphrams, because I, like a dumbass, left hot carb cleaner on the rubber diaphrams and distorted them. Anyway, I found a slide diaphram on ebay that said it fit...

  18. Carbs & Fuel System
    Hello! Sorry for bad technical english but hopefully it's clear enough: I faced a massive gasoline flood through the air filter casing. And even running "poorly" and felt like overrich, will it come only for that the floater's needle doesn't close the gasoline to enter the carburettors even the...

    Hey all, I'm from Greenville, S.C. I just got a 96 VN750, it really is a great bike. Just had a question about the popping, I tried the marbling trick but there really was no change. Is there a way to get the bike back to factory quality, maybe rebuild the clean air system on the bike, or the...
