2004 V-star 650 won't idle

Runs great with the choke out but won't idle. Plenty of power on the road but stalls at stops.

    Sounds like it could be a "pilot" or "slow jet" problem or air mixture screw. What type of carburator do you have? Keihin or Mukuni?

2005 650 V star won't idle

i would say its either drawing air or the carbs need setup. You have to check the breather pipes and the rubber manifolds for cracks or splits.
if carbs need setup, then its best taking it to a good garage, to have them balanced and adjusted.
