Suzuki Intruder 1400 - How to prime the carb for easier starting! 

Lovin’ the variety recently!

Beautiful bike! Great video, I would love a video on the air/fuel mixture adjustment👍. I very recently just bought a 96 Intruder 1400, I saw one here in Australia about 20yrs ago and loved the look of them and now I got one in mint condition. Thanks again for the video, I subscribed👍

Great tip 👍 bought 96 last week also, nice old bike 💪

Thank you, I am interested in maybe buying a 1400. I will be fallowing you for your handy info.

Thank you for the information, I have a 1999 VS1400GL INTRUDER that I am working on; carbs were rebuilt.. I myself ride a 2002 Suzuki VL1500 LC INTRUDER.

Damn fine bikes! Good runners. 👍

Would be great if you made the vid on how to adjust air fuel👌

Love this thank you so much.

Nice bike my friend great video ride safe and keep the rubber side down

I've had my '97 for about 10 years now, and I never knew about that priming trick! Thanks for the info. I can really use it. Just finished up the 2nd teardown & rebuild in the years that I've road it. This time was to paint it. And wouldn't ya know, it's cranky about the whole ordeal. Does not like to be mussed with below 'er saddle usually. And this time I may have rushed things a bit getting it all packed in. Started fairly quickly on the 1st or 2nd try after getting it back together mostly. A little slow on the idling at first(was expecting worse) but noticed as soon as I just touched the throttle it died instantly. 2nd startup required full choke and a bit more cranking than previous, but it fired and was back to that same putting like it does once the temp outside drops below 50, ittl be cranky till it warms a bit before IO can bring any throttle up to get it warm. So on this 2nd fire up I decided to let it idle up to warm on its own since it had been through a lot getting back, but on this time, it gradually started dropping in revs rather than picking up as it was warming up. and that, until it died altegether. The 3rd and final time I was able to get it to fire was only like the last few seconds of poor-to-dead idleing of the last time. Only cranks now, even with a shot or 2 of starter fluid it barely manages to run that off the nothing. So fuel related, yes? Prolly clogged the jets by cleaning the engine in place.(didn't take it out from the frame this time) Pretty sure i could have washed grime from above down into the carbs while I was busy thinkin' ahead when I shoulda been more focused on the corners I was cuttin'. Think I'm not getting fuel like I've pinched or kinked a fuel line(Thats what Im hoping of course) and might be as simple as puttin the peepers on the problem, but if lookin' alone won't find it, I sure see this primer pointer coming in more than handy for the next troublelooking stages after that. I'm sure it will be used a bunch until I can ferret out the weasel that's working a bad wrenching into meh Zen between the Art of Motorcycle Maintenancing...(If ya've read Pirsig, you can dig what I mean). Any more of them Sagey advice tips that you might have under yer hat would sure go easy with me trying to get my knees back in the breeze before the long freeze here in the Hoosier parts! I thank you again though for this gem already, and all the same. Great content composition, by the by! Short but sweet and to the meat! Best way to How-to on the RU-vid in my humble... Ride well!

Id love to see how you adjust the air fuel mixer on these bikes, i have an 800 and its kinda of a pain in the ass

I didn't know this thanks

Air fuel pilot screw adjustment video please. Trying to adjust my vs800 s50 after exhaust install without rejeting.. I've got a little pop at low speed on the front cylinder.

Grande video, por favor se conseguir fazer o video ensinando regular a relação ar e combustível dos carburadores eu agradeço, a minha está chegando em uma semana.

Hello, I’m really very interested on watching the carburetor adjustment. Please let me know how can I see it. Best regards from Guatemala to all

Would love to see a video on setting the idle air/fuel screws on the carbs i got one im trying to get back on the road. I had to buy new carbs for it and dont know what to set em at just to get it running to get everything dialed in correctly. Sync cable and all is out of wack.

Misplaced my bike 🗝️ and I know it's somewhere here @ home, which sucks cuz I've turned the place inside out!! Anyway my question is do you know how to start an 02 intruder with no key

I NEED vudeo for air fuel mixtures

...does the prime stop on its own? Mine went for what seemed like forever but I never could get it to turn over

Awesome ride❤How much will u sell it for 🧐
