What's wrong with how it's running? Has it been sitting up?View attachment 2073781 Got some issues with a 99 Honda Shadow. “ACE”
Need some advice or maybe someone who can get it running correctly.
Sounds like carbs. Easy, but not quick, fix. Put a couple of ounces of Sea Foam in a full tank of gas. Might take a couple of times. That should clean it out. Most likely fix it completely. If not, hit me up and we'll see about rejetting or whatever. Black smoke means a rich condition so plugs may foul in the meantime. Change/clean them if it gets hard to start.Long story..... sat in a barn for 6 years or so... divorce etc... blah blah.
Got her out last year and thrown everything I know at it. Getting it running great and bam! Rode about an hour today. When I got home, Blake smoke at idle. Started popping and pootin. Messed with a bit and running good again just dang black smoke.
Its not very likely. Put a meter on it. Rev it and see what the voltage goes to. Should hit about 13.8-14.2VDC on that bike at about 2500 rpm. If it does, it aint the stator. The regulator may get hot. Some do. It's job is to take the AC voltage the stator makes and turn it into 12VDC to run the bike and charge the battery so they can get a little heat. Still sounds like fueling to me.Did all that. Has the old coms box in there but tucked to the side. Is it possible the stator going out and not sending enough current could cause this? I noticed it was extremely hot on the cover today. Never really noticed before.
Really appreciate the advice! I’m frustrated with it. Love the bike but can’t get this fixed.
