1982 Honda Nighthawk 650 carb problems?
I bought a bike the other day. And what a hassle. It was running when I purchased it but as so nas it would get up to 50 mph it would bog and die. Got it home and a buddy and i took the carbs out and opened them up to inspect for dirt etc. Clean as a whistle. But, now we have two issues. Either too much fuel and its leaking out, or not enough fuel and not starting at all. We have set the pilot screws to what the manual said 2 5/8 turn. And that didn't fix any issues. So since then we have messed around with them trying to tune it anyway. No luck. The floats seem to be in perfect condition and the pins as well. Any ideas?
Have them rebuilt
- Why won't my 1982 honda magna idle? It runs good riding it but it just won't idle. I have to hold it at 3000rpm to idle. It set for years
- Where can I find extended cables for a Honda nighthawk 650? I just am tired of leaning over and I want to do a mini ape set up with like a 9 inch rise so where can I find the throttle cable both push and pull, the brake, hydraulic clutch, speedo and tach thanks
- What is the difference between a 2003 honda shadow 600 and 650? What are the differences between a 2003 honda shadow 600 and 650, I can't find any info anywhere! Besides actually engine size what is different? Are the frames different? Are the internals to the engine different in the 650? Any light shed on this would be very helpful!
- My 1983 Honda nighthawk 650 won't start with the electric start? I recently replaced the ignition coils because the old ones were getting heat soaked and the bike would die, however now the bike won't start with the electric start it turns over fin and the starter sounds fine but it won't start occasionally it ll start when it's cold or try to but I've been having to bump start it in order to ride it. So what's making it do this? Could it be the kill switch? Or something else?
