How to speed up idle time on a V Star 650?
Using the spray version down the throats (not too much) migh help speed the process up a bit. Draining the float bowls along the way wouldn’t hurt either. This also would be a good time to catch up on other routine maintenance……like plugs and air filter.
Is there a rev limiter on a V Star?
Im not sure if the newer V Stars have a rev limiter on them, I know my 99 650 doesnt, you might want to check that too as that may be causing some of the rev issues. Im not totally convinced this is a fuel related issue. Sounds more mechanical than anything else. You could also try replacing your clutch springs as well.
