V-Star Owners - Help !!
Posted: Mon Jun 22, 2009 9:48 am
Does anyone owning a V-Star Classic 650 cc have trouble with fuel injeciton system?
Last October my bike slowed to a crawl while on a ride (luckily 1 block from my house). We took it to the shop where it stayed for 3 weeks and they said it was standard for V-Star's and the only way to fix it was to do something (??) to allow more fuel to pass through.
Sounded pretty costly to me. Does this sound right to you?
Even today, I can ride it, but there is an unusal exhaust smell and the bike does not purrrrrrr like I expect it to. It's a 2007 with 1300 miles.
This is my dream bike and I don't want to get rid of it. What can I do?
