very useful man. I have a CM400t and I never knew how to clean that little tiny jet at the accelerator pump. To make it all worst I just cleaned and put the carbs in hahaha haven't fired it yet. I was thinking to pull it out and check it hahaha

Hi Cody, your videos are my "go to" for my CM400 and 450's. You mentioned a link for the micro bits, but I can't find it?

Thanks for this video. I'm rebuilding the same set of carbs. is there a hose that connects these two carbs together on the small nipple near the air stop valve ?

@senate2042 2 жыл бұрын

Do you have a go to kit or site for quality jets, rubber seals and needles?

How do you find the right carb jets? I cant seem to find the #72 main jet or main nozzle on any website..

@kentuckyyankee 2 жыл бұрын

There is a tube that screws in under my main jet and then the main jet screws in, is that correct?

Have you tried, or what do you think about the rebuild kits on amazon ? Going to rebuild 4 carbs off a 82 CB900c... 30 bucks for 4 kits just sounds to good to be true

What jets go where? When I opened the carbs up the jets where swapped. Thanks

A nice compact video. So Cody, as you mentioned in this video, how would you replace a seat in the carb if you suspect it is worn? What is your source for obtaining reliable parts? And is there an alternative resource for detailed repair manuals besides the virtually worthless Clymer books?

@TheMotorcycleMD 2 жыл бұрын

There is none that I know of my dude

When you measure a drill, measure the "lips" of the drill (the two points that do the cutting, at tip, before taper) thats the widest point of drill. Source- am machinist

Can I mail them to you to look at?

Wrap just a few strands of #0000 steel wool around a Q-tip and chuck in drill to polish float pin seat !

@colinculverwell325 2 жыл бұрын

As a matter of interest can you get those float valve seats out to replace them. If so what's the best way.

@TheMotorcycleMD 2 жыл бұрын

Never heard of someone doing such a task and it working. Also have never seen where someone sourced the parts to do it. But I suppose with a lathe, some brass and a sharp eye anything is possible.

@kennethwinter5665 Ай бұрын

I followed your cleaning instructions. The bike runs great.. But it will not return to idle??? What am I missing?

@phantommonolith642 Жыл бұрын

Bro I was JUST about to clean my carbs for the first time on my bike bike until 1:56. I literally lost that spring 😭 any one know where I can get a replacement?

Great tips. Folks always acting like working on bike carbs is some mystic art because they miss the devil's details your pointing to. Take care brother.

Hi, I have a Honda CM400C, and there is a problem starting the motorcycle after it has been sitting for a week. If I turn it on every day there is no problem. The starter turns the engine but it doesn't turn on easily (with or without choke) finally it turns on. what could be the problem ?

@TheMotorcycleMD Жыл бұрын

Sounds like a pretty normal carbureted bike to me! You may not actually have any problem! Try full choke, full throttle on starting and feather the throttle once she fires up.
