Yes if it only runs with Choke, it has jets that are partially obstructed. Video should help. https://www.google.com/search?q=2006+suzuki+s83+boulevard+clean+carburetor ..

Yes I can see the hose but it's short and I don't see where it would go

chances the sender has packed in check lead for any damage

Good day. I don't know your bike, but I can give you a general answer for all bikes (while you wait for an expert to answer you).

1. Starter relays are located close to the battery.
2. Follow the thick(est) wire from the positive terminal (Marked red and a "+" symbol) of the battery. It terminates/connect to the starter relay.
3. You can also follow the thick(est) wire from the starter to the starter relay.

If the thick wire from the positive terminal (Marked red and a "+" symbol) of the battery runs straight into the starter, the starter relay is embedded into the starter and is then called a solenoid. If for some reason you still can not find the starter relay and it is functional, you could try this(not recommended, breaking component functioning and safety rules)(You are responsible for the actions caused by this method).

1. Remove the Necessary covers so you could have a clearer view.
2. Switch on the ignition.
3. Just tab(pressing the starter button for under half a second) the starter button.
4. Follow the click noise the starter relay makes and repeat until starter relay found.

Hope this help while you wait for an expert to answer. Greetings from South Africa

Check under the. Seat.

sounds like a short on starter solenoid

no by sizes do you mean in length or thickness if they are sitting at different heights then you need to adjust the circlips on the top of the needles at the top of the carb you need to take the tops off to gain access you will see small grooves around the needle check that they are all on the same grove also check that the needles have'nt corroded if they are all shiny (ok)if they look a bit like powdery they need changing

air restriction maybe, how olds air filter

lights come on wants to start but won't. Checked all connections are good. Just won't go that last step and start

Sounds like you need to check the generator and charging circuit. The bike will start and run on the battery alone until it is drained. Once a bike has been started the battery power is taken over by the generators power this also replenishes the power lost in the battery when the bike is initially started. If the generator does not generate power the bike will continue to us the power from the battery until it is exhausted and will therefore stop. A simple test is to turn the bike ignition on and turn the headlamp on (check the brightness of the lamp) Start the bike and re check the brightness of the head lamp, it should be a little brighter if the generator is working. Another test is carried out with the use of a voltage tester (multi meter). Set on dc volts test the batteries voltage eg 12vdc, start the bike and re test the voltage should be around 13 - 14v dc if the charging circuit is working

Bleed the brake system, or have someone familiar with simple hydraulic systems bleed it. Bleeding removes all the air from the lines.

These are for bleeding the air out of you hydraulic brake fluid...

DO NOT PUT GREASE IN THESE!

They are positioned at the top of the brake caliper as that is where the air in the caliper will end up. If you don't know how to bleed brakes, do not touch them.

I'm sure you can read about how to bleed brakes in most Haynes/Clymer type manuals, it takes time and patience. It maybe best to get a mate who knows what they're doing to help/show you the first time.

clutch and brake hoses at 4000 miles???you sure its not fluids??? even so its way to soon

I suggest you get a service manual from the dealer or from Clymer books. Also check the 646 stacks in reference at the library.

not a hard job at all

It is normal. One cylinder & pipe are a bit hotter than the other. It is not at all unusual to see one pipe discolored more than the other.
