Why is my throttle not working on my Yamaha V-Star?

Why is my throttle not working on my Yamaha V-Star?

Float level too low, air leak between the carbs and intake, primary jets still clogged, CV diaphragms leaking, any other path for air to exceed the fuel flow. wouldn’t reving up the engine with the choke affect how it runs if it was the carb?

What’s the idle speed on a Yamaha bike?

The bike hasn’t been running to my knowledge for 4-5 months. Prior to my purchase the previous owner, a friend, said he cleaned the carbs. Basically, she’ll start up fine and idle around 1500-2000 rpm (full choke) but upon going to 1/2 choke or giving her any throttle, she dies.

Why does my V-Star 1100 die when idled?

Because i can have the choke on and it will be idled high and run fine and i turn the choke off and try to use the throttle to get it to ide where it does when the choke is on but as soon as i barely turn the throttle like a 1/4″ it will bog down and die.

What happens when you give a Yamaha a choke?

Basically, she’ll start up fine and idle around 1500-2000 rpm (full choke) but upon going to 1/2 choke or giving her any throttle, she dies. I assume it’s due for a carb adjustment of some sort, but I need a point in the right direction. Thanks!

Can a 03’V-Star 1100 custom start right up?

Hello, I have an 03′ V-Star 1100 custom. The problem I am having is the bike will start right up and idle fine, but when I turn the throttle the bike dies. When i use the choke it doesn’t die i can ride it around with the choke out but no throttle. I have cleaned both carbs and checked the fuel pump all are good.
