Float height level on a 99 yamaha vstar 1100 trying to get the fuel to shut off stock bike
SOURCE: vstar 1100 yamaha will not idle, only runs with full choke
You will most likely find that your Air Cleaner element is blocked & possibly may have sucked up some leaves reducing air flow.

SOURCE: 2000 yamaha vstar 1100 custom. starter problem?
I had the same problem 2001 XVS1100 Custom
this is a starter issue Over time the starter on this bike twists when its under a load.
Look at the two bolts holding the starter on if they are not straight across then its twisted. turn starter back in line with a pair of big channel locks and try to start this should do the trick if this works i would recommend taking the two bolts out and bend them back straight or replace and reinstall starter this should fixya problem
Hope this helps ...............Jimmyfixya
SOURCE: 1100 yamaha 2003 vstar classic gas tank remove
1) Make sure your fuel petcock is closed, then detach the gas line coming off it (left underside of tank)
2) Remove the back seat (single acorn nut on rear fender)
3) Remove the front seat (two allen bolts at the back of seat)
4) There are two metric 12mm bolts under the front seat that hold the tank down. Remove them. The tank should be sitting loose on bike, but connected by some wires
5) Disconnect the white wiring harness under the bike. Tank is now totally free to remove.
6) Pull tank up and back at the same time, it will slide off the two rubber mounts at the front.
SOURCE: Why does my Yamaha 1100 Vstar die when you put it
There is a switch on the kickstand that is supposed to shut the motor off if the kickstand is left down and the bike is put in gear. It's a safety device that's a bit annoying - especially when it malfunctions. My guess is that this switch is electrically or mechanically stuck so it thinks the kickstand is down. It's a fairly common problem. Mess with the plunger a little - it might free up but ultimately you might just want to replace the switch if it is in fact the switch causing the problem. I hope this helped!
