Often asked about the pod kit setup on my bike I have some time to go through it due to a mechanical throttle issue. The Vstar simply cannot breathe in stock form and can greatly benefit from a pod kit. Years ago I'd picked up this kit, so Ill take the time to go through it, disassemble it, go through its installation, the modification of the carbs, the floats and the subsequent re-installation and balancing. With my kit I'd also purchased the longer Pilot screw this is highly recommended for the bike with or without a pod kit.

Its important to remember that the settings and jets are always recommendations, each bike is different and should be put on a dyno for a final assessment.
