    Love it mate. Cool to see your approach and not trusting what the previous owner did. A bit different to my HOG project where I owned the bike for 19 years and did a blue printing of the engine 3 years ago, but I'm looking to replace the airfilters with a different type - so there will be a bit of re- tuning when they come in.

    • @iRidetas
      @iRidetas  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha if you cant trust the previous owner somethings wrong 😂 I find they say anything and everything and at times even geniuinly geniuinly believe what theyve said but its still not right or has no oil in it or air filter has never been changed!!! Im going to rejet in a few vids time! Cheers

  • @williamharris5269
    @williamharris5269 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Im sure you still have this bike i have one as well. I would definatly recommend the k&n filter. Huge difference in throttle response and allot better on your engine

      Haha cheers mate! keep watching into the play list it goes through a couple of configurations to apoint where it has velocity stacks off the carb! XVS650 Bobber Build: th-cam.com/play/PLmVgB9c9_om3F70WW_qsOzyFSeqK_e2aL.html

    If you aren't sure what to do with the dog bowl or just want an idea they do engrave really well.
    Seen some really nice engravings in a few of them and some were really intricate.

    I just rejetted and installed a pod kit, according to the instructions I need to adjust my PMS screws 3.5 turns, how do I know if it’s done right? Also how do I know if it’s at the starting point to start counting the 3.5 turns?

    • @iRidetas
      @iRidetas  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      wind it in all the way then count each rotation until you have 3.5 turns out. If its done right it won't pop and fart on decel

    Just wondering what exhaust you have on the bike? It doesn't sound to loud, but it doesn't sound loud either. Seems I can only find Cobra and V&H, and they are both pretty loud which I do not want. Just what a little rumble. And thoughts?

    • @iRidetas

    I have the 650 custom with V&H short shots. I just had it re jetted and had a k&n air filter installed with tune. I got it home and realized once the engine got hot it was shooting blue flame out of the top exhaust and it was gurgling. Does anyone know what the problem is?

    • @iRidetas
      @iRidetas  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm turning the air fuel or PMS behind the air filter. If you cant see them they havent been adjusted before and you need to drill out the brass caps that cover them. Google it! 👍👍

    I bought a 2000 vstar 650 that had been sitting for a while. Cleaned up the carb jets and it will run. But, the choke doesn't work. Replaced the cable and went back to the carbs and the control arm for the choke doesn't move. Can you give me some suggestions??

    • @iRidetas

      Answered your own question there champ. Id Unstick the choke bell crank or plunger mechanism so cable can actuate it by removing the carbs and using penetrant.
