  1. V Star
    I got me and my wife got our bikes back in September, the previous owner of my wife's bike claimed to have cleaned and rebuilt the carbs and for mine they were not sure the last time they were touched. After looking my wife's bike over, the carbs look fairly dirty/crusty on the outside and don't...

    Hello, I have an 03 V-Star 1100 I just bought but the previous owner removed the baffles. I need to rejet the carbs but I'm wondering what I should run jet wise? It's a duel carb setup also. Thank you.

    Do y'all use o-rings around your main jets & holders? In the 1100 carburetor, the pilot jet and enrichener (choke) jet don't use o-rings. For the main jet, this diagram shows two o-rings: one around the main jet (#44) and one around the jet-holder (#9). None of the DIY videos show using #44 and...

    I have a 2007 V-star 650 classic with Vance and Hines shorts on it. I am rebuilding the carburetor, but due to a oversight the Jets that I pulled out when cleaning it are gone. Curious what size jets would you guys recommend for my bike. I do not have my baffles installed. I am also brand new...

Had new kit installed. Bike still kept carbon fouling plugs. Extremely sooty. Took it back. Was told it needed to be...

    Hey y'all, first post here. I just picked a semi-beatup 2000 Vstar 650 for cheap. It came with the hypercharger, vance & hines and pingel fuel petcock installed. AIS is blocked off but still on bike. Just opened up the carb and looks like they were running stock jets. Y'all got a recommended...

    Hello all, first post here! I just bought a 2002 V-Star 650 yesterday and it has a Kuryakyn Hypercharger and drag pipes (I believe to be 2.5 inch roadburners, previous owner wasn't sure). It has no throttle response just above idle, if I roll onto the throttle the bike sputters and if I get...

    Hey all I'm new here. I've got a 1999 v star 650 custom. In the process of adjusting my mixture screws on the dual carbs they both stripped on the heads. Was super careful but the metal was just incredibly brittle. I'm looking to just replace the carbs overall at this point anyway. It's stock...
