How to modify a CV carburetor for riding wheelies on a harley davidson 

By far the best breakdown on rebuilding the CV.

this was an awesome run through!! I love how effortlessly you did this rebuild. I'd like to see you do a video on how to tune a carb.

Would love to see a vid from you guys on proper tuning of these carbs! Keep up the good shit gents. Love it all 🤙🏼

Just finished a mod at school on carburetors, this video itself just made everything I was trying to learn click. Thanks for sharing.

This channel gets a bell from me! I wanted to stunt a older harley for so long and was afraid of what I needed and this guy shows you everything 😊❤

Love watching Ryan on these how-to type of videos. NoBody should want a mechanic that isn’t as thorough & perfect as guys like this. 💯

"Hello boys and girls and whatever else is out there" 🤗 😂

EXCELLENT job on the vid- best and most complete CV rebuild vid I've seen- thank you for making this.

Thanks . Very Informative and clear..And entertaining. I'm new to playing with carburetors. So this was great. Enjoyed it.

These are the kinds videos people need more of. 👏🏻👏🏻

I've watched hours of video explaining CV carbs and I'm pissed that i understood you more in 32 minutes than i have have with all the other videos out there. 🤘🤘🔥🔥

I like the way you mentioned mid range jet most people always attack the main jet and that is wrong thank you

Great video! Instead of replacing my 20 year old Buell Blast CV40 carb, I now have a better understanding of this carb and parts to get. Thanks! 🏍

Matt legit has a career in arm wrestling and he doesn’t even know it… he loves his stickers 😅. I would love to have this shop near me

Love your style brother Thanks for sharing this.

Better ingredients; better pizza. You da man Kruesi!

Hell yeah! Just did mine a couple weeks ago!

bro the video quaality fucking bangs! great upgrade to the channel.

"and whatevers out there"😂😂😂😂😂😂

Excellent video thank you

Awesome vid. Thanks for posting!

Another great job! Thx!

These kinda videos are so dope!!

Excellent

Hell yea dude ur opening line is great!🤘🛵

Thanks!! Great video.i have a question about the high flow fuel inlet.how much bigger is it do you know?.I bought one, haven't put it on yet but id like specs if you got them and what else should I do to compliment the high flow inlet... anything??.... thanks in advance

Definitely best video I’ve came across. Thanks for this. What’s the gauge though you’re using to measure the float bowl?

Great video..Blunt the tip of a self center punch and use it for the float pins if it's stuck works gooder

Good video!

Nice job. Great upgrades. I like to enlarge the cv slide vent aswell for throttle response. Love your channel

I should do this to my stock sportster carb, not for stunting just better riding. I got a big trip next month plan which involves some elevation, gotta figure out what jet sizes to take on the road but just in general having something modded for performing optimal as it is I’m all for! Dig that eagle 🦅 hand tattoo.

Great video Ryan I could watch you all day no bullshit just how it is . Bro what do DFFFD STAND FOR ON YOUR CHEST ?

Said something about a "set screw " but ill get to that later" before you tor apart , dont recall seeing set screw

I have the CV Performance kit with the TBR moto 90 degree intake and RB Racing BlackHole 2:1 exhaust on my 88" FXD. It has instant response and pulls throughout the whole powerband.

You make that shit look easy

Great video,i put one on a shovelhead going to try this out! Where did you buy your kit from? Thanks

I don't remember if the mikuni has ball bearings but I know for a fact s&s has them, I just finished rebuilding one.

I run a SE Big Bore CV 44mm on my Suzuki Samurai, it’s been a reliable carb for 10 years. I’m interested to find out what the benefit on drilling a new air hole lower down, closer to the fuel bowl and plugging the top one?

😎 It's like watching Bob Ross paint🪄

Hey man pro tip if you have the time of course. If it’s anything brass or metal like the accelerator tube put it in the freezer for 24 hours and a little dielectric grease she slides in like a morning f…

In your opinion is a fuel injected bike better for wheelies/burnouts than a carburateued? Or does it really matter?

At the beginning this is sort of like an ASMR carb rebuild video. Might be on to something 🤣 I'd like to see a tuning video happen also. I know you talked about it a bit but on a bike

i mean he aint wrong with 99% of the shit he says. Just disagree with that carb cleaner but thats one of those things im just gonna have to learn the hard lesson myself.

Thank you!

should get your shop an ultrasonic cleaner :)

What a dope video. I need this kit. 🤙🏻

I love your videos, always learn somwthing new! I do have a question... on your fuel mixtire screw, why use red locktite (permanent) instead of the blue? Keep the videos coming!!!

What about the needle guide? Don’t they wear out? And where can u get that kit?

and whatever out there ! 🙌🤣

Hey bro. On my Harley cv. The chok will not stay out by itself. What could be the issue?

Hats are sick 🤙

Keep in mind that before the mod, the float bowl vented into the air cleaner, and after the mod it vents directly to atmosphere. Since the pressure in the air cleaner is less than atmospheric, the bike will run a bit richer on all circuits as a result of the mod (because there is now a little extra "push", provided by the atmospheric pressure, to get the fuel from the float bowl and through the jets, in addition to the big "pull" of the vacuum in the venturi and the intake manifold).

Have you ever tried a lectron or smart carb on a harley?

Definitely need a vid on tuning

Do you guys believe in modifying the slide ? Rounding the slide of the facing out ?? Any experience with that

My bikes not even carbureted, but you never know 🤷🏽‍♂️

killer video man

I recently pulled apart my stock cv carb from my 98 dyna wide glide 80 cubic inch I removed the accelerator jet and was told it should have a needle or ball and spring under it it was also pressed in like the one you removed so I ordered a replacement similar to the one you just installed but the one I ordered came with a ball and spring my question is should the stock on have had anything under it or is it necessary to have a needle or ball and spring under it will it function normally with or without out I can not Find much information online about this trying to figure it out before I install it back on the bike

@kruesioriginals would you recommend a modified CV carb over a S&S Super E carb?

Bad ass thanks for the knowledge again Kruesi boys. Trent got some more of those kits laying around?

Heck yeah

The new vemt u drilled what happened to it

Can you do a step by step how to rebuild & tune a mikuni hsr carb? Killer content

i smell gas watching this video

Love the content. Also I'm curious. Would this be a similar process for a sporty carb?

I wouldn't advise using a Phillips screwdriver. The stock screws are not made for a Phillips head, and the heads will strip easily.if a Phillips head is used. They need a JIS head screwdriver. JIS looks similar to a Phillips but fits those screws so it won't easily strip the head.

Nice video. Ryan here's a feature on the 2001 Buell M2 CYCLONE EVO SPORTSTER MOTOR . That Eric Buell put on those bikes . what it is is a external idle adjustment feature..it should fit on any 40 mm cv carb. If I'm correct!! And I have been wrong at times so check it out. This little gizmo screws into the back of the carb .it features approximately a 10" cable mounted knob that after routing sticks out past the frame and gas tank.. making quick and easy idle changes effortless on the fly. I love mine. Also you can use it on cold starts to help your bike warm up faster, using less time on choke mode!! .I THINK EVERY CV EQUIPPED HARLEY THAT CAN USE IT SHOULD HAVE IT INSTALLED??? IM FUCKING VERY SERIOUS ON THAT POINT!!! LOOK UP THE BUELL CV CARB. I'm not sure how many were installed but ifin you can do it..DO IT.. NOW IF I COULD FIND A FUEL ADJUSTMENT SCREW JUST LIKE IT, IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITY OF JUST REACHING DOWN AND TWISTING . INSTEAD OF LAYING ON YOUR BACK TO FIND THE Fuel SCREW.OR RIPPING THE CARB OFF TOO FIND IT.OR BURNING YOUR HAND ON HOT MOTOR.

Glad someone still plays with those CV carbs. Simple, easy to rebuild and set up. Mostly trouble free and reliable. I always manage to break those cheap ass fuel inlets. Always plan to chuck em anyway. Who's kit do you use? I didn't know about the vent tube switcheroo. Thanks! 🇺🇸⚔️🍕🍺👍👍

does this apply to sportsters aswell?

So question, with that vent hole you drill. Are you not worried about dust or dirt making it’s way in?

Have not had any luck finding info about ignition mods??? Other than oil pan an the CV Carb mod what else is necessary to the engine of the older bikes?

😂 liquid dust rules...🗽

Hello boys and girls and whatever else is out there lolol

Can I ask you a question from your experience… I have a 2000 1200s (bigger stock cams than the other XL and has dual plugs ) the stock main jet is 195 and I believe the stock is 42 (from what I’ve read online?) but I have added a louvered air box with performance filter and a two for one exhaust twin power performance coil pack and some other light mods. I’m thinking the main is fine at 195 but I’m feeling like I should bump the idle to 45 or 48 since she’s running rich with a 42 or if you think 42 is the go to spot still. I’m about to do this exact kit. Lmk what’s worked best for you! Great video man 🤙🏼

God i love these videos. Fuckin sweet brotha. She's now ready for full send mode..🤘

I just bought a re-build kit and a slide assembly, so kinda kicking myself.

Already sold out online): how much longer until these kits are back in stock?

Any idea when the performance catb kit will be back in stock?

Top Dawg💪 no one does it better, change my ma_fukin mind🤘

@KRUESI ORIGINALS So ideally, we want the accelerator nozzle spray to literally hit the needle dead on to cause that gas stream to turn to a spray or mist yes? That’s the goal?

On the subject of intakes have you ever done a breather bypass on the M8s so it isnt dumping crap back into the throttle body?

👍🏻👍🏻

Hey Trent, how much you guys charge to do one of those set ups, I’m in Denver so I would ship you just my carb! You guys are the shit, keep up the great work!!

🤘🏼

Skipped diaphragm install

What jetts you use???

Does a vapor locking issue cause the CV carb fart? Ha

Do you offer this as a kit?

Lectron Carbs ? ….

u know there is a thing called a tap to cut threads ????

Haha whatever else is out there 🙄🤣🤣

Where's the word you missed out who's the dope

I know im late but why would you cap that vent off at 11:50?

Parts info ? I'm not going to do the vent don't ride wheelies on my fatboy

If you changed the float level from .413 to .400 you RAISED the fuel level in the bowl, opposite of what was explained in the video.

Dude no disrespect but since I but mikuni flat side , and a s&s super, I have a box of CV's just for funny try it before and after , cv is gay , still don't kill the messenger love your work 😉

I'm 666 like

You should have waited to put loctite on. Those anaerobic sealers set up and gal the aluminum when it adheres and breaks loose again. See what I'm saying? Surprised you didn't just use a tap first. Over all good info. Love the videos. And toxic masculinity!! LOL
