Been looking for a better presentation on removing and replacing the carbs. Glad I found yours. Well done. Lots of detail and not a lot of yakking! Thanks!
What a mission! Such detail in the video, and glad I watched to the end for that lovely triple sound!! I had the earlier XS750 2D silver and blue trim model in NZ.
@@vintagemotorcyclerepair Our model had the high flat seat, mid set pegs and low bars, I used it for touring from home to University - about 7hrs riding and a three hour ferry ride! For me, it had poor disc brake performance. But otherwise, sounded great and had good comfort.
Thank you so much for your excellent video it helped me enormously while I was rebuilding my own carbys. If I had a query it would be not enough detail on the float hight your vernier looked like 14mm so I set mine at that .Havent had it running yet but I am sure it will be good..Any way thanks for the video and keep up the good work
Sounds excellent, I just been re setting the float heights on my 78 750, it has been stood for a long time, I have 850 carbs on because all the 750 ones are buggered, and this was a good refresher. Thanks.
Хотел в межсезонье тем же заняться, но зимой в неотапливаемом гараже не смог вытащить корпус воздушного фильтра, настолько задубела резина. Пришлось отложить до весны)
Холодная резина усложняет тяжелую работу. Тепловая пушка мало что делает в американский холод, и примерно десятую часть этого в российский холод;) Удачи, друг.
Copy that right to the point without any fluff. Earned a approving "subscribe." No wonder I never cleaned the air box! KN might have a solution. If you decide to one day sell PM? I'm in Ca.
To what height did you set your floats? I rebuilt a set of these Hitachi carbs last year and couldn't find any specs on float height and ended up struggling to get the bike running well.
If the tech data really isn't available, which is quite often I'm finding, then I do have a method for setting float height. I noticed that every time I set the float height to factory spec, then the flat part of the float sits exactly 90 degrees to the posts that hold the pin, as viewed from the side, when the float position is exactly at the point in its normal range where the needle valve just closes and fuel flow stops.
"we play til I win".... I've heard that somewhere - awesome video
Mr. Honda Jim taught me that one ;)

Do you do this type of service? I would send you the carburetor of my Yamaha 850xs
Yes, email me here 😉 vintagemc.alex@gmail.com
Did you just cut out the tool box?
@@JshMusician I did not cut anything out, the toolbox may not have been present on this bike.
Video would have been better if you TALKED MORE and explained every step you were doing😢
Thank you, I go back and forth about this topic a lot. You have been heard
