Expert Boarder Posts: 544 Choke cable 1 Year ago   For those of you who have removed your fuel pump, I would like to know what you did with your choke cable. Where did you mount it???? Did you make your own mounting system.

Look in star web directory under member websites. It looks great and was cheap and easy to do. V-star 650 choke bracket bend to fit gas tank bolt.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #55138 Flashback (Moderator) The devil to pay, and no pitch hot Moderator Posts: 4601 Re:Choke cable 1 Year ago   I took an angle I had laying around and drilled it out to match the bolt holes that the pump bracket was attached to, drilled the hole for the choke, and painted black.. Its basicly in the same location but higher up under the tank.. pumpless In the pic the choke cable is running under the mani, I have since routed it above..   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #55163 Cougar (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2832 Re:Choke cable 1 Year ago   I put mine where the stock pump was .....I cut a piece of stock aluminum ....Coug   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #55255 hardone2get (User) Just ride would ya! Expert Boarder Posts: 544 Re:Choke cable 1 Year ago   Thanks I now know what I'm going to do. For those of you who answered, who is running without a pump? I would like to eliminate the pump and just due gravity feed like my harley but I want to make sure the bike will still run properly.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #55258 Cougar (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2832 Re:Choke cable 1 Year ago   I am running pumpless and she runs fine even when I hammer the throttle on the expressway 100 mph .I was having to switch about 30 miles earlier to reserve so I sawed off the main fuel intake on the petcock.I have installed a hiflow pingle filter and vented my tank cap and disconected my back flow preventer errrr rollover valve.I didnt do all that out of necessity ,I did it before removing the pump and when I have some time and get something to carry a little spare gas I will ride and try to eliminate the need of the gas cap vent and find out exactly how many miles past hitting reserve I can go.So in short I am still playing with mine Do a search for pumpless and there are several posts discussing it .....Coug   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #55283 Flashback (Moderator) The devil to pay, and no pitch hot Moderator Posts: 4601 Re:Choke cable 1 Year ago   Like Cougar, I just took mine off a month or two ago..so I can't say much..no problems that I have noticed tho...I got a puralator filter at pep boys, as I am not quite ready to go without a filter yet, although, many do..Did not vent the gas cap..did take the rollover valve off..never paid much attention to the gas gage, as I never had one on any of my other bikes, when it starts to cut out, I flip it to reserve and start hunting a station.. I like it   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #55482 hardone2get (User) Just ride would ya! Expert Boarder Posts: 544 Re:Choke cable 1 Year ago   Where is this rollover valve located? And cougar you metioned a pingle filter, where would one obtain a good filter that is not large in size?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #55484 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 11041 Re:Choke cable 1 Year ago   Strapped to the rear downtube just below the fuses. I use a snowmobile filter ..... it small but clear so I can see the filter. Pingle also sells a chrome jobbie that lets you replace the innards.
