Great tutorial. I've owned a lot of bikes over the years and I have to say removing the carb on my sportster was by far the easiest one. Usually step one was pull the tank which I would have likely done out of habit.
Happy to help. Thank you for watching and all your support Greg. I agree moving the tank you get to clean up everything and take a good look at and expecting the vacuum lines and clean the opposite side of the gas tank. Ride safe and have a great day. Sportsters are great machines.
Welcome back Rocco, where ya been hiding ???
I love it. Happy Florida got that right. I just been working a lot on my car. She's old she'll be turning 60 soon. Thank you for watching all your support HF. Ride safe and have a great day. Let me know when you head up to Archie's. That's my spot, Fort Pierce.
Question? I cleaned my carbs on an 05 sportster roadster, after putting back together the bike revs way to high , and with the choke in it died out real quick , it does have a after market air filter , any ideas of what could have happened?
Happy to help when you put your choke in and she wants to stall out that's an indication of a bad idle jet. It's dirty and clogged so when the choke is out, the idle is high because it's running off that circuit for fuel when you shut the choke down, the bike gets starved the fuel and dies clean the carburetor and go over that idle jet again. You should be all right. Thank you for watching and all your support Callemout. Ride safe and have a great day. Take a look at this Carburator cleaning video any questions just ask. th-cam.com/video/Pp4l-zbQcy0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rrAuqKKrHhwzWPGv
@@TwoWheelRocco so that’s how it started …. I already cleaned the jets and everything when I re assembled it all is when I got the very high rev , and when I lower choke the rev will slow down but die out , it has a high performance ally annes air filter , idk if I did something wrong while putting everything back together or I just need to tune it all up again , thank you!
@@TwoWheelRocco I just read your comment I will try again , I just didn’t know if I have to go get it all tuned because the after market air filter , appreciate your feedback back
Thanks for the excellent video!

Hey Rocco. New to the channel. Desperately need ur help, tried going through all ur videos to find an answer but I think my situation is a little unique. I got a 1996 Harley sportster long story short It cranks but won’t turnover tried bump starting but that doesn’t work, replaced the battery, checked the spark plugs, put starter fluid in the carburetor an it almost catches, replaced the starter relay. But it still will not turnover and I’m out of ideas Any feedback would be much appreciated. Have a blessed day 👏
Happy to help. If you could leave me a cell numbe, I'll will give you a call and we'll see what we can do. little vague we have to take it step-by-step. Thank you for watching all your support. Ride safe and have a great day. Look forward to hearing from you. On my way out the door at 6 o'clock right now for my bicycle ride. Talk later,

Love me my two wheel rocco videos. Most of the time I already know how, I watch anyway. This Sportster is different than the 2 I have owned so this video helped me become familiar should I work one this model. 👍
Happy to help. Any questions just ask. I love my Sportster. I think they are great motorcycles. Thank you for watching and all your support Kieth. Ride safe and have a great day. Truly thank you for your support.
What’s up Rocco, popping in deceleration and back fire. Could it mean running rich??
Thank you for all your videos
Happy to help. Sounds like a vacuum leak. How long is it been doing this. I would check your vacuum lines and the way your carburetor seals into your intake, clean the Carburator. Take note of what the jet sizes are and then see what you got. Thank you for watching and all your support anite. Ride safe and have a great day.
Hey TWR! Love your videos, man! Can't begin to describe what a tremendous help they've been. I've got a question was hoping maybe you could help me with. I've got a 2005 sporty 1200 and I'm having an issue with like 75% to wide open throttle. What happens is that it breaks up, kind of like its getting no fuel. Any ideas? I've got some vance and hines short shots. No idea about the jetting really, I'm still learning - but the bike runs great outside of this scenario. TIA brother. Ride safe.
Happy to help. I would start with your main jet that you are running. What air filter are you running?. humidity I would lean towards a bigger main jet. I'll send you a video, I would start with that main jet any questions just ask, Thank you for watching and all your support Mark. Ride safe and have a great day. Take a look, Hopefully this helps.th-cam.com/video/Cjixbd1ctqY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=X5HsQIpNBNl6UkMJ
98 Sportster 1200. Son rode to work bike ran great. after work, dead rear cylinder. Drove it home and it backfired a few times and then ran great. Bike ran great yesterday so This morning he started it up and it's missing on rear cylinder again. I ran compression test and no compression again on rear cylinder. what could be the problem of why he loses compression once in a while. This is the 2nd time it happened.
Happy to try to help. No compression rear cylinder on and off. I'd have to say there's something going on with the valve. if there's some thing with the piston or a ring? It would be all the time, You have a valve that's hanging up. I'm sorry I don't have a better answer or a simpler solution. Thank you for watching and all your support Rusty. Let us know what it is when you do figure it out. So it read zero on Compression test. Let us know. Ride safe and have a great day.
I just wanted to know what is that funky screwdriver that you use? Looks like some kind of spring loaded torque assist??
Happy to help. You are correct it's an impact screwdriver with a nice Phillips head bit so you do not strip out those air breather hardware. Thank you for watching and all your wes. Ride safe and have a great day. Any questions just ask.
Update #1, pulled the carb off the bike, hooked up a hand brake bleeder pump to the vacuum hose that connects to the back of the carb. With petcock closed, no fuel flow, opened petcock and put a vacuum on the line, fuel flowed with a good full flow. the petcock seems to be working properly. The fuel bowel on the carb was full when I removed it. I am going to disassemble the carb and inspect all jets.
I agree remove it go through it and reinstall. Let us know how it works out.
Hi! How do I remove the fuel like from the carb. Yours was broken but mine isn’t. I’ve never worked on a bike before so I don’t know how.
Happy to help. You must be patient and think everything through. I will send you a video on how to remove the float needle. This will show you how to remove the pin on your float to get to the float needle. Just remember if it ain't moving easily go to the other side and tap it from there. Thank you for watching and all your support. Ride safe and have a great day.th-cam.com/video/tS_-M4RuWc4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Mt40M1KVEIGFBJQG. Any questions just ask let us know how it works out patients
Help, your opinion is needed. 2006 Sporty 1200C, I removed the carb and replaced the following, new choke cable assembly, new rubber manifold gasket, new washer kit for air mixture screw, new main needle, new main jet 180 to 190, new pilot jet 45 to 48. cleaned all parts and reassembled and reinstalled on the bike. It will not idle, at start up, blip the throttle, a shot of gas sprays into the throat, hit the starter, it fires and runs for 4 to 5 seconds and dies. If I keep bliping the throttle, it will stay running. If I pull the choke out just slightly, it will keep running. The air mixture screw seems to do nothing. ???
When you say you pull the choke out lightly and it will stay running indicates to me that your idol circuit is dirty. How did the bike run prior to you doing all this work? Let us know. I would take it apart and go through it one more time. Let us know how it works out.
@@TwoWheelRocco It ran "fairly" well, kind of rough, that's what prompted me to go through the carb.
I look at things if it ran fairly well. I will return it back to those jets and that set up and see what you got. It's easy enough maybe you put too much gas into it. Let us know how it works out.
Hey dude i have a 2000 883 hugger. Sat all winter with 1/4 tank of gas but did add stabile. Now since i started for season. Wont let me take off and accelerate until completely warm. Like 10-15 of idling. Condensation in tank?????
Happy to help. I would check that there's no oil in your air filter from sitting through the winter the oil could've sump into the motor causing your problem there. Motorcycle. put some fresh fuel and ride it out but .just make sure that oil level is halfway on your oil dipstick. Let us know how it works out. Thank you for watching and all your support big Chooch. Ride safe and have a great day.
Hey Rocco, do you prefer the original cv carb or rather the s&s super e? One of my sportster has super e, the other has the cv. Thinking of switching to the super e on the one with the cv.
Happy to help. I prefer the original Harley Davidson, CV carburator, It's a very well mannered Carburator. I find the SS. If not properly dialed in gets a little funny they run good you just gotta keep on them. What Carburator do you think runs better? Thank you for watching and all your support bludraco. Ride safe and have a great day.
Hi Rocco.
When replacing a carb for an 883 would you recommend using a cv carb again or maybe a SS super e? What are some places to get a quality cv carb? How, do you tell you are getting a good one?
Happy to help. I would stick with a CV carburetor and find it on eBay, Find one that's has a good history $50 and $100. Thank you for watching and all your support Scott. Any questions just ask. Stay away from SS carburetors they could be a real Pain CV stock Harley Davidson carburetor you can't go wrong. Ride safe and have a great day.
Sorry, I forgot to send the video test to Petcock test video, That's where it all starts. You could be have a bad Diaphragm and not getting enough fuel or getting too much fuel. Let me know what you think. th-cam.com/video/7Fo9Q93OJXI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=STJLTuOYcbYhn-1R. Very important don't overlook it. Let us know how it works out.
I followed this step by step. I was able to get it to idle (horribly) for about 10 seconds, but then it backfired and died. Now it just cranks. Any advice?
Happy to help how was the bike running prior to his carburetor cleaning? I could only suggest that you go through it again and test your Petcock. I will send the video. let us know how that works out. Any questions just ask what year by comedy Miles. Thank you for watching and all your support deez. Ride safe and have a great day.
@@TwoWheelRocco Rocco! I am pleased to see you responded! I ended up having a massive intake leak between the mani and heads. I couldnt find it because I was overthinking it. I covered the intake on the carb and she fired right on up with the loud sucking sounds coming from that aforementioned mating surface.
Happy all went well. Thank you for the update. Ride safe and have a great day. Love those sportsters.
Update #2, removed the carb, stripped it all the way down, cleaned it, reassembled it, reinstalled it, bike idles and runs better than it ever has. ?????
Happy to hear all worked out. Sometimes it just takes a little patient and those little idle jets could be a bit of a bear to thank you for watching and all your support and your update.Wes. Ride safe and have a great day.
I'm trying to figure out my rear brake light in a 2007 harley sportster xl883. Someone put a softtail rear fender and a stupid skull brake light on it! I bought a cheap led light for the rear. And it's only 3 wires. I have a running light working. But no brake light when i hit either brake..
Happy to help. You will need a test light and you will have to go and test the wires to see which ones the break the directional or whatever you need but under the seat is the harness that brings that wires back to the fender so that's where I would start, Thank you for watching and all your support Josh. ride safe and have a great day.
Three wires? Ground (neg), Running (pos) and Brake (pos). There you go. If running works switch to other wire. Light should come on again but either brighter or dimmer than before. If brighter that other wire is definitely brake. If dimmer the new wire is running. Now you mapped the light connector. Time to map out the bike side and make sure the brake wire on bike side has electricity when brake is applied. If not then bike wiring and bike switches on brake pedal and lever need test/replacement.
Having trouble with a faulty break light on my sportster, any idea where the either sensor/cable is located?
Happy to help what year bike? front or rear brake. test each one and see what you got. I will send a video, most times with your front break pin that hooks up to you master cylinder in the front. You could test the rear by jumping the wire that's a connected to the rear brake solenoid. It's a switch follow the brake line. You'll see a solenoid with two wires plugged into it. I'll send a video. th-cam.com/video/xuYA4Qyo_0g/w-d-xo.htmlsi=VI6IjwRvsH6NY2wx
@@TwoWheelRocco 1993 xl883, neither front or rear break activates it
You will need to test and take things out of the equation until you figure out what is broken. It sounds like I would start with the rear brake and see if that solenoid. you could jump that. if you get a light that's working your front is off your master cylinder, and the pin in the handle as I sent you that video. Let us know how it works out.
