I left my Shadow 600 parked for 15 days and when I started it yesterday, the same thing happened, fuel leaked in the same way, I turned off the bike and went to check, but I didn't find anything and I didn't know this information either. Thanks for sharing.
Mine too, just today that I put some gas to her, she started leaking gas by the same hose, and even though the gas drainage was totally closed, the gas came leaking from that part as well, what do I do? 😩
Remove carbs (1 or 2,depends on model),remove lower carb bowl, remove floater,in each carb,clean floater valve,reassmble,ready.Floater valves clog due to gasoline's varnish and chemicals.Sorry for mistakes,english not mother tongue.Ride her,vlx is a motorcyclists bike, a dying breed,dont let chrome shine fool ya

Great video. I have a '95 VLX600 and it has 2 carbs - what year is this one you are working on? Edit: Never mind you said it at the beginning!
Yeah its a 2001 with a single carburetor for both cylinders.
Very nice video except for your head in the way a few times. Mechanic/Autobody tech 44 yrs. Love motorcycles.
Right on!
When it was not starting at first after you put the carb on what did you adjust to make it start?
Didn't get the pilot circuit cleared completely. This is why it is important to follow the circuits all the way through.
Any chance you fix my shadow 600 for me

Where did you find the instructions for tuning the carb after you re-installed?
Added the link in the description. Thanks for watching!
@@lubetube. Thanks!
what was The app That Told You About The Slow Jet on Your Phone?
I use Partzilla for diagrams. Great company!
What windshield do you have there?
Not sure. I'll check it out next it gets worked on.
