No power, misses at full thottle, carb is clean, will not pull it self in high gear,

The high speed jet isn't rich enough or the carb passages needs to be cleaned. You can move the clip down one spot on the needle so it gets more gas, this will also give you more power at the top end.

Sounds like a passageway may still be clogged. I suggest that you try dipping it in carb solution for a couple of hours, then rinse and blow out everything.

Hey Anon,
Cleaning a carb is not an easy undertaking,, there are several tiny passages, tiny jets, and the needle/seat assy, If you are not trained to know these.. you may not get the carb as clean as it needs to be... Install a new spark plug... a new air filter.. and get a qualified pro to clean and set the carb.

The VTX 1800 is fuel injected which requires the additional sensors (oxygen, throttle position, etc). However the VTX 1300 is carbureted, which takes the sensors out of the equation. If you are changing the exhaust with a:
Slip on-muffler

• remove old mufflers, and slip on new ones
• could add a better air filter, and you get a better sound, minimal power gain

Full Exhaust System

• Remove old pipes from the cylinder heads (i.e. jugs) and use a rag to wipe off the seat and block the opening.
• once both pipes have been pulled from the jugs, prep your new pipes with windex. Clean them well, finger oil and other gunk can cause bluing spots
• Install the pipes, torque them in place, re-clean the pipes and use a chrome polish.
• Purchase carburetor jetting kit, and either take it to a shop to do it, or you do it. If you have never re-jetted a carburetor before, I suggest you go to a reputable shop and get it done.
• With the carb completed, a new air filter (high flow K&N is what I use - I have gone through the same exhaust system replacement procedure on my sled)

If you replace the exhaust without completing the carb/air cleaner, there is a very high probability that you will get backfires every time you ride. This will happen especially on deceleration, and will eventually blow out your valve seat, causing the engine to feel weak due to lost compression.

romove carborator. pull apart and carefully clean. Do not use brakleen or carb cleaner use a proper carb cleaning kit

pull your plug and see if its wet after it stalls. sounds like its running rich if you're seeing smoke. check the float height. check for clogged air filter.

it goes into the carburetor, if the float is stuck in the carb the gas will continue to flow out of the overflow hose

your main jet is dirty. clean the carbs.

All most positive it is in your carb take the bowl off it as you take it off there is a small tube that hangs down that all most reaches the bottom of the bowl need to take a small wire and push through it it is blocked .symptoms backfiring no idle coughing and sputtering if it does start
