    Linking all 4 carbs together?

    Has it been thought of? Just as the VBoost has the carbs linked 2 and 2, what about adding a second line to link all 4?

    Replaced my clutch and cleaned the carbs ride... A Vmax ride.

    With the double d clutch and carbs cleaned I took it for a quick ride yesterday. With that super hard Exceddra tire on it, it spins easily from a 5 mph roll. I was able to pull the front end up high in 1st gear, but not in 2nd gear. I never clutch up my bikes, just pure power. But end result...

    Backfiring thru all 4 carbs.

    I have a 2005 Vmax with 15k miles on it. When I rev above 2500 rpm intermittent backfiring occurs thru all 4 carbs. If I let out the air/fuel mixture screw 6 times it will stop on all but one carb. I know that that is way too many turns and indicated an air leak somewhere. I have used two...

    idle stuck high after reinstalling carbs

    obike ran great last year and every time I started it this winter. Maybe a slightly low idle but not the 5k I have now. One carb started recently spewing gas from the top.vent hose. I removed the carbs but did not fully separate them. I removed enough brackets to rotate the offending carb...

    Woohoo! Fixed the carbs

    I still need to drain the bowls and such, but I turned all 4 air screws in then 3/4 turn out and the mystery problem totally went away xD Also, it may just be how carb bikes are, but say I'm cruising along at X rpm, it will feel like the motor is weak initially when I touch the throttle, it...

    All 4 carbs backfiring.

    I bought a 2005 Max in great condition a few weeks ago and when I picked it up it ran fine with the exception of one of the carbs backfiring on occasion. I installed an Ignitec computer and COP's kit and while the bike became more responsive it would still backfire thru the one carb. Now after...

    Dannymax (BRC) converts Cali carbs to Cajun carbs

    I sent Dannymax a rack of carbs I picked up from California that was gummed up so bad, the butterflies would not even move and the slides were stuck inside the carb bodies. They had been sitting for a couple of years with ethanol gas in them and were in bad shape mechanically and internally...
