On the left side of the bike is the spark plug for the front cylinder. You need to pull the plastic cover off of the head. Use the spark plug wrench that came with the bike's toolkit. The rear cylinder plug is on the right hand side, also with a plastic covere. You do not need to remove the seat.

SOURCE: removing the seat of V-Star 1100 Classic 2001?

is this just the seat itself or the seat cover? if its the seat assembly there should be 2 bolts holding the seat down located somewhere around the rear of the seat aprox 2 inches below the seat. if your talking about the seat cover you have to remove the staples thats holding the fabric down to the seat pan.

Hi,
The first thing you need to check is the air filter. Sometimes critters can get into the airbox when a bike sits for awhile. Sounds crazy, but it has happened to me. If nothing is blocking the filter, give it a quick clean since you have it out.
Next things to check:
Faulty diaphragm
Improperly adjusted fuel level
Clogged or loose main jet
Faulty fuel pump
You may not be able to check these on your own, but these are the next likely culprits.
Hope this helped

SOURCE: Starter will not turn over dew to buzzing under seat

buy a new battery shelf life is not 2 yrs the only other thing that would have saved this battery is a trickle charger or battery maintainer

How to change spark plug on a V star 2002

Remove plastic covers from the heads (front on left side of bike, rear on right side). Use the spark plug wrench that came with the bike in the toolkit. You do not need to remove the seat.

Where is the spark plugs located on the '07 1100 classic?

Follow your ignition wires; they go right to the spark plugs. If the bike is fitted with coil packs look for them on the heads; the plugs will be underneath them.

We understand that your problem is: Me have a Yamaha v-star 1100 custom. He parked it for 1 1/2- 2 years in a storage unit. This whole week we've been working on his bike trying to get it started. We...

When you first turn the key on, you should hear the fuel pump come on and build pressure - it will be a ticking noise. When the pressure is low the pump will run continuously, when the pressure comes up, the ticking will slow down and the pump will stop. The fuel pump is located behind the lowest cover on the left side of the bike - but you can hear it normally with the cover in place. If it's not working, check the fuse - it's in the same area as the pump if I recall correctly.

Also - check your fuel filter - it's under the seat behind the first plastic cover you'll see when you take the seat off.

If none of that works, you might want to drain the tank and pull the petcoc(k) and check the filters on it.

I just purchsed a Yamaha V Star Classic 1100. No manual accompanied the bike. How do I get to the battery under the seat? Thanks

THE BATTERY ISN'T UNDER THE SEAT. THERE IS A CHROME COLORED PLASTIC PLATE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BIKE, SIMPLE TO REVOVE.

Where is the battery location for my 2007 vstar 1100. and how often do i need to charge it.

Battery is under the seat. Buy a battery tender and keep it hooked up when not riding in the winter. If you are in an area of the country where you can ride year round then a battery tender is not necessary. Battery will probably last 3+ years if properly maintained. I owned a 2000 V-Star 1100 Classic and it was a fine bike.
