Has the bike been parked for a long time? Or is the bike running rough? Might be time to remove the carburetor and clean it up.
Or you want to rejet the carb and need to remove it and take it apart…
In this video I show how you can remove the carb, take it apart and clean it up.
As Always, SAFETY is first. Use all the precautions and safety equipment and gear at all time…depending on what is being done that includes, gloves, glasses, mask, etc.
How to Remove Gas Tank Video:
• DIY-How to remove and ...
to remove the A/F screw...the elusive D-tool, here are some options:
option 1: A .223 shell casing flattened slightly on one side works well.
option 2: Set-of-8 Carburetor Adjustment Tool Kit

option 3: Glens VTX Garage...tell him footprintsinconc sent you...it's the A/F fuel adjustment tool or the permanent mount A/F screw (great option)

With this video as my guide, I rebuilt my carb on my 07 1300 that had been setting in storage for six years. I even had to reseal my fuel tank as there were rust spots in it. It now runs like it was just taken out of the crate except for the Factory Pro jet kit, the Barons BAK, and Cobra Speedsters. Set A/F screw at 1 and 1 quarter turns and it starts and runs like a scalded dog. I don't touch the choke AT ALL. This video was an integral part of successfully bringing my X back to life. Thanks for a truly well-done video.

@@footprintsinconc i inherited 06 vtx1300r from my next door neighbor friend and bike hasn’t been ran in about a year in good condition w only 11k miles! Someone tried to steal fuel here in our apartments and cut fuel lines but they failed resulting in “little rust” inside the fuel tank and the carb needs to be “rebuilt” according to the Honda bike dealership. I’m a total noob when it comes to motorcycles and my plan is to sell her tax season or riding season February time and I want her to be in good working condition. So far I had Honda dealership did oil change, f&r brake line flushed, radiator flush and installed new fuel lines and it’s got a brand new battery she’s currently insured and title pink slip is arriving to me any moment. I’m $800 into this so far plus possibly the two work I mentioned above to be done early 2022. Was thinking of having a local shop here in Vegas reseal the fuel tank and rebuild the carb so I can get her in good working order when it’s time for me to sell her. Thank you for the reply and any advice would be awesome!

what is happening? what do mean by not starting? can you explain what is going on? what is the bike history? did it ever run with you, what happened that caused you to do this carb cleaning, etc? did you check for spark at the plugs? you can remove the plug wire, attach a spark plug to it and hold it to a ground with an insulated screw driver to see if each plug is firing for fuel: check the pet cock valve and ensure you are getting gas by removing the pipe to the carb. if that is ok. remove the air box, cover and back. have the carb just attached to the intake hose. 2nd open the screw at the bottom of the float bowl and ensure that gas is coming through. 3rd, if all that works, then twist the throttle and see if you get gas squirted through into the opening where the air enters 4th, ensure that there are no leaks in the intake pipe that attaches at each cylinder head and back of carb if you have a spark, fuel and no leak in the intake you are getting gas and air, and spark, then something should happen....i'm assuming it has compression in order to fire.

You don’t need that alternate spring on the choke. The choke has a pinch nut on the front that can be adjusted to apply tension to the shaft to keep it where you put it in or out. It is behind the rubber cover. Just grab the rubber cover and ring under it and tighten slightly to better hold the shaft in place.

you are right, but it has gotten stuck for other before. so having the heavier spring just ensures that it will never get stuck

I have 80K+ miles and recently moved. My bike sat for well over a year. Would not run. I'm rebuilding/cleaning and noticed my vacuum piston diaphragm has a couple small tears. I'm guessing I need to replace the rubber part. But do I have to buy the entire new piston with the rubber? OEM is over $100. Ebay for around $30. Love this video! Also, I tried to blow through the radiator connections but I couldn't. Do they get plugged?

Well with this many miles and the bike being so old you would have to buy what you can that's available at this point. If all that is available is the complete kit, I to get the complete kit and replace everything. As for all OEM versus something That is after market I would simply stick with the OEM for the carved parts. $100 is not bad for everything, Think of this as a brand new carb then While you are doing this you might as well drain and flush the coolant as well, I have A video for this. This way you can make sure that you take all of the hoses out and blow through them and make sure none of them are plugged and this will give you a chance to make sure that none of the joints our connection points are leaking

My 04 vtx1300r is leaking oil and fuel from carb?? What could it be. It has 42k miles

i assume you mean you have oil and fuel in the air box...not coming from the carb itself. oil can't come from the carb. the vtx has air filter box has a crankcase breather outlet. you could be getting pretty severe blow by from combustion in one or both you cylinders to push oil into the air box...i haven't heard of that. as for fuel in the air box...i would remove the carb and clean it out and put it back...could be many reasons. this would ensure its all clean. then you would have to follow instructions on turning the carb so that the bike does not run lean or too rich.

@@footprintsinconc it runs fine. I just put it away for winter and noticed wetness around bottom of carb and oil on left side of motorcycle seeping down from around the carb. But it ran fine all summer

Did you open the carb and clean it up? Did you see if any of the rubber parts had deteriorated? If yes, the buy a replacement kit and replace all gaskets to ensure gas doesn't just flow through. Then adjust you carb to the initial setting per manual and adjust from there. This way you won't get too much gas going into engine. Don't run the engine on gas diluted oil. It'll wear out all the bearing and sliding surfaces...ensure that you put new oil in it.

My trottle does not snap back like yours. I put everything back . Bike starts and runs fine but trottle is hard to turn. I messed with the cable nut on carb but i cant get it right. ???

so the inner cable (shorter) is the one that pull on the throttle, the other side brings the throttle back. check the routing of the cable...especially in that horizontal clip under the tank where the two cables sit, make sure they aren't crossed or overlapping, so that cable housing isn't pushed in crimping the cable thus making the throttle hard to turn. follow the cable up and down to ensure proper placement ... any impingement will causing the hard feeling. once you've fixed that hard cable pull, then you'll be able to adjust the cable bearing at the carb to get it to snap back and have proper end play.
