Thank you! I have a 1998 Honda ACE and with age of bike I am having trouble finding vids for repairs on that age - are the spark plugs in same position? To be honest I have a great mechanic that does this for me but I want to get more into minor tune up stuff. Mine sat for a whole season and barely ridden last season - has been ridden hard in past 5 years (98,000) prior with regular oil changes. Wouldn't start last week (after sitting since last season, battery on trickle, new two years ago), replaced the battery and now it starts but stalls when we add gas - with and without choke but worse without - doesn't idle great but never really did. Had an issue two years ago where ridden 500 km on very hot day, idling at side of road and went to pull away and it DIED - had my mechanic check stator and solenoid and no issues - we jumped it but it was a scary ride home whenever we slowed for light I almost lost her and she finally died again 3 blocks from home - because we never found the issue I don't trust her anymore so have ridden her less and less. I feel like spark plugs done last year but will change air filter now (we took the filter off and it does same thing with NO filter - does that mean anything?) - sits in dusty garage without cover all winter. Are there major differences with that older style bike or is it safe to follow your tutorials for Spirit and Aero. Wanna upgrade to VTX now I've ridden my"starter bike" but want to pass on this bike rideable - maybe we should clean out carb? have never done that but will watch your tutorial - any other suggestions on my old girl?

Hey Rocco, is there any spark plug that was specifically designed for the Shadow motorcycle? Any brand to stay away from? What about the "3 hole fluid change? I'm 58 years young and "drive like an old lady" slow as molasses down Mt. Everest in the middle of winter! What of the air filter? Doug🏍️👍😁🦅

Happy to help I would stay with the Honda stuff go to your dealer or online Amazon. There's only one hole for the oil on a spirit two on a VTX and three holes for a Harley Davidson. Watch the video. I explained it pretty carefully. Any questions just ask as for the spark plug NGKDPR8EA 9 gap it at 35. Stay with the stock air cleaner and you should be all right. Thank you for watching and all your support Doug. Ride safe and have a great day.

I would really appreciate it if you could help me out. I have an 05 shadow spirit 750 and I’ve noticed that in 5th gear when I’m on the throttle all the way it starts bogging down if let off the throttle some it runs fine. The bike came with Vance and Hines exhaust and was rejetted according to the previous owner. I messed around with the idle knob so idk if that’s whats causing the issue or is it that it might need a carb cleaning like I’ve seen in other videos.

@jvera718 4 жыл бұрын
Also I got the bike with baffles removed but the bike is loud af so I bought some v&h quiet baffles, hopefully that’s not causing any issues. I also just put regular gas in it, Previous owner said to run premium on it.

@TwoWheelRocco 4 жыл бұрын
Run premium fuel. Those carburetor on Honda Spirits are difficult to work. Twin carb setup. If it idles and runs but top end is weak, That would suggest you need bigger main jets. What V&H exhaust are you running?
