Check the post section. I included the the page from the service manual giving you the specs and instructions for setting the float height.

Yes. Air mixture screw. Thanks for the technical correction.

There is one airbox on this 1400. Each carb has an intake tube from the box to the carbs. I have removed all that and installed individual filter pods.

I have another video that shows where I tucked all the electrics. Lots of modification due to custom work.

I will have to find some spare time. I have not been on the channel in about year or the bikes doing a lot of house projects (finishing up painting the house). I will get back with you if find some time and break out the tools.

Please help me out with that ok thanks Wayne

@@waynemilone8096 I am not familiar with the fuel injected models. I have experience only with the dual carb set up. On a carb set up I would say that would be float issue, but not on for a bike with fuel injection.

Just on the off chance, did you check your fuel lines? the Suzuki lines do crack if they are stressed.

any chance you could email me your manual? or a copy of the papers you have on this bike?

@@dwightturner1 Me? I don't have it bro

I have not worked an 800, but I think the principle is the same. The carbs are a bit offset due to the way the lay on the cylinder so I believe you can what I have provided.

4 months later. Anywho I just rebuilt carbs on a 2000 VS800/ The air fuel screws are preset and have a cap over them that needs to be drilled out if you want to change the -o-rings and clean the needle. The settings from the factory were ZERO turns on the rear and about 2 on the front. The manual will just say PRE-SET. I was surprised to see it turned all the way in on the rear. I set it to 2 turns on the rear just to see if it ran better but ended up setting the rear to zero turns and it ran fine. I still need to road test it but in the parking lot it felt fine. May need to tune more after road test ride. Also I could not get the thing to sync and it was popping but I noticed the owner (I am a tech) had the throttle cable right at the throttle grip turned out quite a ways. Once I turn that all the way in it made a huge difference especially on the rear carb as I could see the sync lever on that carb move. So popping went away. Smooth out the idle.

@@jcaashby3 my carbs got messed with from the shop years ago. They put a stage 2 cobra kit in it and called it good. All because I took it to them after I cut out the first set of baffles and it was running real lean. After they "fixed it" It was running super rich for years. You couldnt ride behind me cause you would get high! Lol! I removed the cobra air needles, replaced the slide diaphragms and basically reversed the cobra kit. I did this to get back to a base line. Now she wants to stall when I take off. It seems to run ok other than a lot of popping on decel, which is supposed to indicate a lean condition. Fire will shoot from the exhaust when it does. I adjusted the fuel air screws and synced the carbs but to no avail. I'm still kinda stuck at this point...

Are you asking for the throttle cable mount? If that is the case, I have not thought about it...Yes. Do you have Instagram?

Glad you asked. I plan to do that very thing. I am preparing two set ups. One with gauges and the other with mason jars. I am running through the paces to make sure i get it all correct and then I will shoot the video and explain things in detail. I have only had one day to do it so far and most of that was making the jar set up. Most videos do not cover syncing these bikes and the one I found only explains using the rear to sync the carbs. I am fine tuning the process for both gauges and jars/bottles, depending on what folks have available to sync the carbs, and for using all cables to sync the carbs. Unfortunately, i have been working the day job a bit extra last couple months. Gotta make the time for the bike soon.

@@billysbobbers3122 im going with a carb sync pro and just going to get it done asap. but for the next guy your video would really save his ass lol! i appreciate yo making 1400 vids, everyone does the small 800

@@SMITTYXCOREISHXC LOL! Completely understand. Let us know how it goes.

Coming from Hagar Moto, that is truly a high compliment. Keep pumping out those videos. You do great stuff for the backyard builder.

@@billysbobbers3122 thanks for the support brother. Will be back to it very soon!

Sorry folks...I dropped off social media. It was getting too much for me to juggle all those with a full time job and house renovations/upgrades and fielding questions about the bikes.

I really appreciate the compliment. Sorry for the delay. This COVID has me tied up helping out others for the past many months and I have not had much time for the bikes or posting to social media...I moved all the fuses under the seat, behind the rear carb. You can see them in the video if you pause it. I have just started posting to Instagram for public consumption. I need to add more photos. Been doing a lot of this without using social media for a long while. I will try to post a video specifically on the electrics and where all of the components are mounted with an explanation for each in a week or two.

I apologize, the fuses and electrics can be seen in the "Walk Around" video I posted. Take a look there and you will see a brief explanation of what was done.

Ask the question and maybe I can help or point you in the right direction. The bike world is a connection full of support.

Sorry for the late reply. COVID has me tied up at my full time job. But I am so glad this helped. More to come.

Thank you. I really appreciate that. I will do more eventually. Work has been a pain. Having trouble funding help so I am tied up with extra hours and don't have a lot extra at home to do more garage stuff.

I have not worked on a VZ personally. But the concepts are the same for most carbs. Follow the service manual and keep these tips in mind when tuning and you should have good results with a little patience.

Good point. Depending on elevation, you will likely have to adjust the front out more than you will the rear. This usually makes most think they are doing something wrong. Also, you have to keep in mind that if you go to straight pipes and delete the air box for direct air filters, that will change EVERYTHING. Then you will have to jet the carbs. Again, I recommend Hagar Moto's video for that. He does a great job explaining Intruder 1400 carb jetting. The only thing I did different is I don't buy a kit. They are too expensive. I always buy my jets in separate packs for $3 to $8 and save at least half of what the kits cost.
