Bad ass

What carbs are these? I have searched the internet and can’t find it. I need the correct carb kit for these carbs 🙄

Man I need you help on my gs750 project! I rebuilt them just like you watching your videos an cant seem to get it right! An one carb is not geting fuel

This could be a much better video without the loud, annoying and irrelevant music at the beginning

my brother likes the red one so much that he is gonna get one

Ysr . . . LOVE EM !

Hey there, I don't know if you are still active for comments, but do you remember where you bought the carb kits from?

Please help. I just bought a gs750 and have spent the last 2 weeks getting it running well. Took it for a ride and it bogs at 80-100% throttle. The rest of the throttle range is great and has good power. Does this mean my main jet is too big?

My GS750 came California smogged in '79. It was almost unrideable in that tune. The air/idle screws were painted/sealed. It took overnight paint thinner to correct. I found a Mikuni manual that had the non-smog specs for jet sizes and needles for the 750. I ordered needles, needle jets, main jets etc right from the book. Once those were installed and a good carb sync it unlocked the greatness of the bike.

When are you going to make another video B?

Hi bro so im running PODs on my Gs 750 i hate them as i bought the bike like that. Im struggling getting my carbs to operate properly, should i tape up the pods? I have my fuel screws at 1turn out and air at 1.5 out. What would u suggest i set the screws to bro? Thanks man

I just found out you had a channel after watching you on Shadetree Surgeon for quite some time. & now I find out you're a fellow disc golfer! Can't wait to dive into your videos. You're the man!

I wish I could do a little frisbee golf today. I lost my discs. Unfortunately. Happy Belated birthday ShelBy.

Your video is interesting, and you are correct about many multi-cylinder bikes using slightly richer jetting for the middle cylinder, or cylinders. You find this especially in the Kawasaki triples. Where I think you are incorrect, is your description of this feature on the GS750 using VM26 carbs. You appeared to be describing enrichening the middle two jets by turning the slider adjusting nut/grub screw on top of the carb. All this does is increase the fuel mix into the engine, just the same as if you twisted the throttle. You have actually used the slider carb synch adjustment, not any enrichener adjustment, as this not only lifts the needle, it also lifts the slide (which increases the air input). When you come to balance the carbs, whatever adjustment you did on that grub screw on top of the carb, you will have to move again to get all four carbs sliding in synch, giving equal vacuum on your gauges. The AIR SCREW, which is on the side of the carb, meters the air in the mixture at idle, and as the throttle is opened, this mix becomes less and less important to the overall mixture, with the needle jet taking over prominence. If you want to enrichen the middle two cylinders, it would have to be by changing the position of the needle circlip, taking the needle up by one notch. I'm not sure the bike would run well if you did that on just the two middle cylinders. The PILOT SCREW, the one underneath the carb, is not really a fuel adjustment, but meters the total AIR/FUEL mix from the AIR SCREW into the carb venturi, and is also predominantly a tickover adjustment, although this mix itself starts to get mixed with the needle/slide mix of air/fuel, as you open the throttle. This is why it's important to get the PILOT SCREW right. On all US-spec VM carbs, the factory marked the PILOT SCREW head with a dot at one side of the screw slot, and also marked a line on the carb body, for that side of the screw slot to line up to. It usually lines up before one complete turn out, from lightly seated.

You should be recording some stuff on the Forgotten Angel's.

Great video mate, Just wondering what the end measurements you set the Jet Needles at in the end. I caught that there was only a 10 thou difference between inner 2 and outer 2, but what was the over all measurement on your ruler. Cheers 🍻

Hey ive got a GS750 and im having some backfiring issues, any way i could ask you some questions?

What does the needle do? What's the point on adjusting them? I have this motorcycle and I'm learning by myself how to fix it ... It spends lot of gasoline and burns spark plugs so quickly so I'm going to change those things inside of the carburetor (I bought some reparation kits on the internet) thanks for your video :D

This thing is a classic.

hat down, excellen good job on a carburetors which is extremely hard to get on properly working (handle with old bikes, meet such issues every day)

This is sending me to sleep

Don't get it?!

Good luck shelby Got here from shadetree surgeon Love the music man

Found pilot jet in my parts 550 is same on 750

Found pilot jet broke n stuck in #3 . years of hassel. Now year later havnt put it in yet. Been my exuse to do other mods. Missed the local burnout contest 2 year now.

God bless my 750

I’ve played a couple times, had a blast!

Curious what you set the air and fuel mixture too? I'm having trouble finding information on the settings.

carb work is always fun! Great vid

Wait Florida cards for beer? I just assumed as long as you could point to one they'd serve whoever lol

Looks like fun.

I have to go try this out, it looks great fun. Thanks for sharing shelby

So ..sort of like regular golf.... with out the clubs, and the bag, and the balls, and the T's, and the shoes, and the cart.... nice. 👍

I need to work on camera angles

i never knew this was a thing lol. it looks fun. is this how you relax before or after the BP autopsy ? lol. i'm surprised you haven't got Flip and the others out there to play. good vid

Sounds like me playing, lots of expletives involved.

If you really love disc golf, and you are in the Savannah, Georgia area, there is a place to play. In Hardeeville, SC about 25 minutes from Savannah, is Sgt. William Jasper Park. Apparently it is the place to play disc golf. People come from all around the country to play. It’s off I-95 at exit 8. I’d tell you the riding is awesome around here, but it’s like riding in Florida. I’m glad I’m not the only one who makes videos of things that aren’t always motorcycle related. Thanks brother.

That subscribe cat means business lol

Always learning something new. Good stuff Shelby👍🏼

Shut up Akaso, you're being needy lol. The Suzuki sounds great BTW

hey Shelby ... what exactly is the reason for cylinder 2 and 3 running richer ? i changed the plugs out on my 1998 1200 suzuki bandit other day .. i noticed plugs from 1 and 4 were a nice brown colour and 2 and 3 were black .. just wondered why 2 and 3 need to run richer?

Beep Beep!!!

i know jealous is a strong word... but i am jealous of you ! getting to play with all this cool bikes !! :)

Currently giving this same treatment to a 79xs750 that’s sat on its side stand since 1980

This is awesome content mate. Love to see people work and explain on a bike and then start a 40 year old bike like brand new. Awesome work mate

Someone has quite the toy store.

Nice work. I liked the old Tillotson carbs. Those things were simple to work on. Not many bikes had them, but Briggs and Stratton used to put them on all their motors, even the racing motors.

NOT THE BEER!!!

Hey Shelby thanks for the shout out! Changed the Instagram to lonestar.48

Great vid
