Greetings from a new member! 2 Years, 5 Months ago  
In October I was hit from the rear and luckily sustained only minor injuries, but my ride was totaled. After a 3 week long search I bought a 2005 Midnight Star 1700 leftover with 2 miles on it and a full factory warranty. I'm looking forward to purchasing accessories and adding my own touch in the next couple of months.
While searching for a Road Star forum to research carb puking I found this site. It's one of the best forums I have seen. If there are any ideas how to fix this problem without voiding the factory warranty please let me know. I look forward to talking with everyone in the near future.

Retired Rider! Glad you weren't injured badly. You're going to love your scoot the more you ride it.

... there is hardly anything you can do to void any warranty from Yamaha... their slogan is, we build it, you make it your own... and they stand by it! To solve the carb puking issue, you just need to adjust your float level in your carb... if you plan on adding a better air filter and exhaust, you may want to go ahead and purchase the Barons jet kit... it comes with new float bowl screws that you are gonna need... as well as all the other stuff to properly re jet your carb...

Type puking in the search box in the upper right, grab some coffee, and you'll be reading all night.

I see you live in Cape Coral; If you get out to the Sebring area stop in at Quality Motorcycle Repair. If I can help you get anything you need or want let me know.
