06 Stratoliner, rough idle, stalls at stoplights, some backfire. It does this only sometimes, other times it runs good. Yamaha mechanic replace battery, plugs, cleaned air filter, checked computer, checked exhaust sensor, ran fuel injector cleaner thru 3 tanks of gas, cleaned selinoid connections, oiled linkage, problem continues.

this is not true I am riding the same bike with the hardcrome 2 into one side burners and love the sound and the performance

If your jetting is too rich it will be extremely hard to kick start it and will most likely flood it from kicking.First thing i would do is pull the top of the carbs off (cable,slides and needles) and see which clip they're set at. If they are set stock which would be middle clip then lower the needle one clip. This will lean the mix out and should start up easier with no problems,The idle issue is most likely just off.If your fiance still has the TORS on it then on top of the carbs he will see 2 dime size and screws and wires as soon as he takes his seat off.While running he can turn each dime size screw in or out to adjust the idle. If it has a TORS elimator kit on it then he won't have all the junk on top of the carbs and it will be just a cable and round cap screwed directly on top of the carbs and the idle screws will be on the side of each carb (brass color screws with nuts to tighten) same thing...in or out to adjust the idle where needed.Hope this helps.

have you checked for vaccuum leaks at the intake manifold? you can check by pouring water over the gasket area when/ if you get it running!

SOURCE: i need to remove the exhaust for a 2007 yamaha stratoliner.

i think you will find that the cables you are referring to as powervalve cables (if you are talking about the xv1900 in the picture)are not powervalve cales you will find that they are for the auto decompression valve in the cylinder head,if you follow them back you will find they terminate on a lever with a tensioner you can back off the tensioner to remove them but shouldnt have to just to remove the header,hope this helps

Carbs are not synchronize. Running richon yhe back and lean on the front. If each carb has irs own filer, check the rear carb air filter.. But for sure get the carbs synchronized. Good Luck.
