Brother , this just happened to me earlier ! I’m gonna start there ! I hope it’s the same outcome!

should have cleaned it with acetone first

I recommend a smeer of vasceline on those contacts incase water gets in and corrodes them again.

I've always wanted a Virago ever since the early 80's. I'm short and the Virago fits me perfectly! Love the tires! I'd paint the bike red, though. Love the bike anyway! 😍

This is exactly what I needed to do to my bike thank u

Dude yeahhh!! Thanks for the video! Looks great.

My 07 1100 did this ended up being the fuse block.i had no power at all pressed down on block had power rode it for a day then lost power coming home .it stayed running not good but made it home.

That's so frustrating, ordering a part that is suppose to fit and is either to big or to small, I feel ya brother

Esta bien chingona este modelo!

Great video. I'm thinking of doing the same to a Honda 250 magna variant but I can't find anyone to give unbiased advice. I worried the large pipes will kill the bottom end on a 250cc engine. Some loss is ok but is there a good gain at higher revs? What did you feel when you rode this bike? Keep up the good work.

Ive got an '85 GS300L, fun small cc bike. Gotta figure out where to get vacuum for the petcock, currently only runs on the prime setting.

that little sht is slicker than snot on my knob

I hope mine is just as simple. Rode one day… no fuel pump the next day

Great video buddy!!! All but the shower of tools!! Lol

need more steps you just show the part and take it off not every hose needed shitty tutorial

I don't know if you will respond to this because its an old video but I have a 1998 Yamaha xv250 and I'm having trouble getting the bike to start I was wondering if you would be willing to help me out ?

What fluid do you have in the ultrasonic cleaner? Is it just water as well??

How did you connect the pig tail?

What is this water you use for clean ? its tenner ?

i would be proud of it too. the red and black and whitewalls look good.

I have a 96 600 dual carb I ripped everything off of the vacuums all that homemade velocity stacks on it cuz the other ones are too tall but it won't run unless I put a screen with a piece of foam in there

Maybe color mark the hoses with nail polish and color mark where the hoses will go back

You guys rocked it. I had to subscribe. I know about the cold hands thing as well. Happy to see a shop as messy as mine. BBgun,Spokane Wa.

So how does having the pleats of the filter open to the rain and bugs work out? Any problems?

I can get mine to run on, on for a minute or two but then it slowly dies. Can run on prime no problem, but it will leak gas like no other. Can run on on but will slowly overflow on fuel.. any tips? I'm wondering if it's a vaccum issue, but i have recently replaced the petcock, thinking the original was bad. Possibly flooding the carbs?

yeah but what does it look like after a few months on the road...

Question sir, did you change your cable kit to make it fit on the riser. Thanks in advance.

mine will make the sound like it's trying to start, when i push the button, but, like, it doesn't ignite or something. i'm thinking it's a battery connectivity issue. but, all of this is new to me.

i have a 2007 125 that won't start

leave the throttle alone all you will do is flood it

@7min! leaking fluid from the resevoir....no rags...........not good on the paint.

I just got mine a few weeks ago and soon as i saw it, i knew i wanted to customize it. Beautiful video

I would have actually glued the whole surface top and the backing of the vinyl push it in place smoothed it out then brought it around after dried and stapled

Do us a favor and find out who worked on them carbs (floats were brand new with no gas stain) so none of the people that see this video use him! lol Doesn't matter what you do to them carbs they will not operate correctly without the air box installed on the bike. Constance Velocity (CV) carburetors need back pressure to be balanced. With out the airbox there will always be a flat spot in your acceleration, always! The air pressure on the inward set will be lower the the outer two carbs and it will only get worse the faster you go, there is no way around it!

Wow your awesome, I have a 2002 vstar 1100 when I put the key in turn signal and horn work when I try to start it no power I hope this my issue because when I turn the kill switch on then press it to ignite it’s not no noise no nothing but the horn and turn signal work. I replaced the relay, changed oil and filter, i have the battery charging now o yea one question, what will make the battery go dead? 🤔

Thank you for this video. Where does the hose that comes off the breather box go?

I wonder what the towing capacity is with that hitch

Did it crack after hitting ramps, kerbs etc?

Nice video! 👍🏻

Where you get that air box replacement I can't find one

do you have to extend the hoses?

Those mud flaps have a gap because your truck doesn't have fender flares(trim) on it and you bought the mud flaps for trucks that do.

Leave it to the old heads to teach the new guys like me how shits done😂

I need your old handlebar 🙂

Wow!! That was pretty good it had you for a while but you got it working thanks for sharing 👍

I got the same bike and it was my first bike, got it running and running pretty good! Mine is all stock minus some blinkers and straight pipes i put on it. I have that similar issue where the clutch is way out but ive adjusted it as far as i could and its barely good enough, i put new clutch discs in it and i have a brand new carb on the way aswell as a stage 1 jet kit to get her singing good. I dont ride it enought because i have newer faster bikes but i almost want to upgrade the sprokets but i can get to 80 just barely which i think is fine i jist use it to put around. Love your bike! They may not have alot of power or speed but man are they fun even for experienced riders lile us. Keep up the info amd videos!

I'm thinking of putting a short screw nail in the handle of a Cold steel pole axe, will the wood split?

What’s the link to buy it ? My friends buddy stalls and the carb was al ready cleaned do you think this can help? Thank you.

With all due respect they're still white on the red frame and the one side of the white is thinner then the side that is facing the motorcycle. I feel like it might have been better if you used a brush instead of the spray so you could get a better detail. Just my opinion and I don't want to sound negative because it does look okay and it's a great concept good job.

It's looks like the fuel relay did the trick, was not the solenoid
