Here I break down how to install velocity stacks and what you can and can't remove.
Short answer: you can remove anything that's not coolant or fuel! "Professor" TJ breaks down what he'd remove vs. leave on a Honda Shadow and offers a brief science + history lesson for all you newbs out there.
While this is interesting, a complete stock-to-mod walkthrough around a bike, including carb disassembly and rejetting would definitely help selling those puppies. I'm sure that I'm not alone with zero mechanic experience, but willing to give this a shot if I had such a guide available.
I wish there was an actual bike in these videos. It’d make everything more clear.
"the carbs freeze" anyone who has owned a suzuki vl250 and ridden it in the winter or just a cold day in autumn will tell you alot about carbs freezing, so glad i got my shadow bobber now and dont have to worry about that ever again
I always love to listen to you read out the illiterate typos
Thank you for your videos I ordered the jet kit and the stacks. Do you think you can make a video showing you removing everything off a bike the explanation is great but a hands on video wold truly be a blessing
I have a 1994 vlx 600
Did you ever find a video that shows that, I'm about to tackle the same job
1:46 I live in Canada 🇨🇦 so if I drive my motorcycle in winter 🥶 I need this. Got it. Edit: 3:13 so I don’t need it.
3:33 I once used JB weld to put my side cover back together to make it home have a rock smashed the side of my bike. LoL
Stop explaining and do the work while explaining alot of people can't learn just from you describing it.....people are hand son
Do you have any detailed videos of removing the airbox and petcock and replacing with velocity stacks? First bike and don't wanna screw up
We don't have a disassembly video unfortunately I'm sorry
Great video! Just bought your velocity stack for my VT750. The guy that I bought it from has already installed a set of jets, runs fine but It pops during deceleration- should I look at the jets or leave it alone? It has the long fuel mixture screw also. I’m going to follow your instructions on that. Thanks for these videos- all the hoses are intimidating.
Did you end up fiddling with the jets or what happened?
@@KISSame981 I installed the “pair valve” covers and that fixed it. TJ said that the front cover was a pain but since I removed the tank- no big deal at all. If you do this- I urge you to keep control of the small bolts- they really will be a pain if you drop one into the head cover!
@@KISSame981 I also stripped out all the emission crap, installed a coolant recovery tank from TJ and installed a TKB velocity stack.
So I have a 1993 Honda Vlx 600 and that line your talking about in the beginning was pushing so much air into my carb it was preventing my carbs from working properly!! It wouldn't start with this connected! I put straight pipes on and it will need re-jetted. I'm sure that may have something to do with it.
Great information but you got a video of you installing everything?
my stock carburator looks like an octupus! I’m about to start ripping tentacles off!!
Hey man can you do a tutorial for what hoses aren't needed on these bikes.
you mean like the one you commented on?
What would you say is the best intake choice ?
I have a magna V45 1985 I wanna add velocity stacks to and remove the air box. Any suggestions
Hey TJ, in regards to plugging the hose that comes off of the intake; does coolant need to be running through that manifold or can I just plug the hose that feeds the manifold coming off the rear cylinder (just below the main coolant nipple on the rear cylinder)?
Yes plug all hoses😂
on carbrated aircraft engines we have a "Carb heat" control
carb ice IS A very serious problem AND the "Ideal" temperature for carb icing is 59f and relative humidity is also a factor.
NOW, I need to go look at the "Plumbing" on my 1100 Aero.
😂
@@TJBRUTALCUSTOMS I've only been on bikes 5 years
Mostly above 1500 AGL, up to 9000 foot passes Snow, Rain ICE
Hondas 1100 Aeros carburetors Harley. KAWASAKI Fuel injected
Never iced up the Engines.
Flying 50 years and YES Carb and airframe icing have been "O S Moments.
Your discussion on the "Plumbing" around the carb has me thinking
I'm assuming my New old 2002 Aero has that system?
My first 1100 Aero at 100 MPH Still had "GO" My. New one flattens out at 85 your information has given me something to check
Thanks
I bet you could freeze carbs where I live. It was minus 50 here this winter.
Hey man love everything you do.
Is there a way to put velocity stacks on an 83 vt750c shadow? The air box is cracked and broken, and I would love to eliminate it and cut weight
why do you say never use jbweld on a bike? I used some to patch a very small hole on gas tank, worked great and has held up well. What's the problem with doing that?
How about the '87 Shadow 700 with the frame intake? Can I use velocity stacks instead of those damned rubber collars?
Consider buying a VT750 for a Bobber/Chopper type build.
How is the power compared to VN800/Vulcan?
How many vulcans do i own? ZERO. How many VT750's do i own? THREE.
@@TJBRUTALCUSTOMS what bike would you compare the power to once you do intake, rejet and exhaust mods?
I'm sure it's been asked but I'm new to the channel. Can you swap a 750 into the 600 frame? I like the mono better than the twins. It's just a cleaner look.
TJ, will those stacks fit on a 98 1100 aero? About to place an order if so.
Wilk these work with cobra pipes without baffles on an 06 shadow aero 750
Nao possui nenhuma filtragem?
What size intake filter do I get for my 2000 honda shadow 600 ??
Hey I just wanted to know if I can install the stacks and not have to do anything to the carbs like rebuild or re jet. I have a 02 750 dual carb spirit
No. Any time you change intake or exhaust you MUSTA TUNE. There's no short cuts. The bike may not even run, if it does it will be way too lean and run like shit, and you will cause expensive damage.
@@TJBRUTALCUSTOMS ok thank you very much!
@@santeriascott2565 and you're fuckin welcome duder!
What can I check on my bike if it doesn't seem to have the acceleration it should have? I have an 06 honda shadow spirit
TJBRUTALCUSTOMS I read the this comment and it definitely makes me dream and think about performance, because at this point, it’s the only this I am trying to figure out on my 2017 Honda Shadow Phantom. Great motorcycle and to me, it’s a never ending love story because I love everything about it but enough of that. I saw that you mentioned topics like; fuel, spark, compression, change of wires (which caught my attention right away) and last but not least, the boots! Been thinking about this topic for a while but I’m no expert and I was wondering if you could suggest me some products that I can apply ti increase more performance. Thanks!
i take it this would work for the vt1100s? i might not put velocity stacks on, but i want to get rid of a lot of the mess thats under the tank...
Garrett Owens I have this same question
I have a 97 VT1100C2 Shadow and took all that crap off. The bike actually seems to run better. Make sure you run a hose from the crankcase breather located on top of the rear cylinder down to under the bike, otherwise you'll have oil spewing all over the heads...don't ask me how I know this... ;)
Hope this helps.
Question, I have a 1200 sportster and want to add an open velocity stack.. with no filter but will it make it run lean since it’s getting so much air.. my bike is Efi so I’m hoping it will add a little more fuel... what are your thoughts?
So how do you install v stacks because you didn't cover it
Just bought my first bike. 2012 honda shadow. How could i get more power?
Under $300
I have a 1986 Honda Shadow vt700c I'm missing parts from air intake to carb heads and was thinking about going with velocity stacks. I'm not sure if any of the 750 models you sell fight my 700? Thanks
Tj, how do I hook up a sportster tank (2002ish) to a 83 honda shadow 750? We have velocity stacks and removed the old gas tank(s) amd air box system. I am having trouble figuring this out. Thx man....love your videos. They helped a lot.
You need to plumb the tank to the fuel pump directly, on the 80s shadows the tank sits below the carb line so the fuel pump cant be deleted.
Mate it's been pissing rain here for weeks. It's given me the fucking blues
What jet kit works best with velocity stacks? I have a 86 Honda Shadow VT700 and I need help please.
@@TJBRUTALCUSTOMS do you guys carry stacks for that year and size bike??
Awesome content !!
Hi
I have an 02 Shadow that has velocity stacks my question is do I need the filter still? I don't like the mising part on my bike I bought like it that can I put the original cover back or and aftermarket spike?
From what I understand from reading the blog posts on his website is that the stock airbox offers the best airflow because it isn't turbulent. Cone and pancake filters cause a lot of turbulence which will suck power because the lack of smooth airflow diaturbs the air/fuel mixture. I may be wrong about that so I recommend reading the posts on his website.
Will a 2007 750 areo be single carb or duel
If I remove the afp ,where do you hook up the choke and idle adjuster
Thanks for the response, i just bought afp bolt and a couple of other thing from your website ,cant wait to install them ,keep up the good work bro
Thanks 😊
Do the velocity stacks work on the 2000 vt1100 shadow?
I would like to know this also, or at least a direction to some that work on a 2002 vt1100c2. Thanks
I've had 1" stainless 6" long manifold ice over on a 200cc motorrized bike build
can anybody ad their 2 pennies as to how lenient or not california police/chp etc are in the face of modified exhaust/intake...credit cards are out, fingers are on the key pads, but i tend to ride uhhhh, 'dirty', as one might say, and i'd like someone's opinion as to what i'm signing up...and yes, i'm a newb to motorcycles...not jail lol
95 Shadow Ace too ?
Come on honda rtv'd my clutch case on
Will you make a video that shows what you are talking about ? Can you show what needs to be plugged and how to plug it ? Where is the AFP Vacuum located and what does it look like ? Is this different from a fuel pump ? I have a 1999 vlx 600 and under the seat there is something that looks like a fuel pump . Is that a fuel pump or is that the AFP . Can you put a link to that shows the AFP ? I found the video that show the AFP . czcams.com/video/glAgAl-xt-c/video.html I also found how to remove the AFP czcams.com/video/S0fYNWPkwp0/video.html
Is that a Cowboy Bebop tattoo on your forearm?
what about "HOW TO INSTALL VELOCITY STACKS ON HONDA SHADOW-AND NOT DESTROY YOUR INTAKE!
If anyone has done the installation please share a video of how to do it .! Thanks a million
Where are you located brother?
