Hesitation while riding my Honda V Star 650 While riding the bike beings to hesitate as if it is going to turn off. Recently (4months ago), I had the starter, fuel, and air filter replaced. When I get the speed up to about 60 miles it gets really bad. Can anyone provide me guidance on how to fix it. I do not want to take it back to the shop and spend unreasonable dollars when I can fix it myself.

1. #1 test. Obtain a 12 volt circuit tester, the type that looks like an ice pick with a wire coming out of the handle. With ignition on, hold the tip of the circuit test against the post of the coil, the post that is marked with a + The light in the tester should light up, meaning you have battery power. If you don't have electrical power there, trace back to battery to find out why. If you do have power at that point
2. Moving the the opposite side of the coil and place the tip of the tester again the post marked with a minus. With the key on, crank the engine. The light in the tester should flash. These 2 test have just tested your battery and ignition system. Bill

sounds like a jetting issue. change the main jets starting from the largest one you own and work your way down.

Not often i see good questions like this. I would start with riching the carbs a bit. Another possible simple solution is to get your plugs check to make sure they are firing at full capacity, either one can cause the problems you have described. My first guess though would be the carbs, it sounds like the throttle is set a bit off to what it should be at. The fact that your bike runs fine otherwise also suggests this conclusion.
