My father-in -law went to a nursing home and he gave me his Honda V45 Motorcycle. The bike had not been ridden in quite some time and did not run worth a crap!
I am not new to motorcycles and I have cleaned many carburetors, but these, and the V65, are very complicated, especially concerning removal.
I THOROUGHLY cleaned the carburetors and installed the expensive kits but could not get the "bog" during acceleration, eliminated.
After the THIRD tear down of the carburetors, I was flustrated that the bog was still persistant.
I decided to give up and sell it like it is.
I replaced the air cleaner assembly and it set for about two days when I decided to ride to the gas station for a fillup.
To my amazement--it ran perfect. The last two teardowns were unnecessary! It apparently needed the intake restriction!
The buyer of the motorcycle has ridden it several hundred miles with no problems.
In all my 50 years of machinery repair--I have never run into this situation.
