GV650 AIS Bypass
The GV650 has been known to have exhaust valve
problems resulting in seized engines. According to
information from the factory (provided to dealers), the
“fix” is to simply block off the AIS system from the
cylinders. Our good friend Leroy Beal was gracious
enough to assist us with the instructions, and the entire
job was so easy, we had to post it for our customers and
friends. Thanks Leroy!
This mod requires two ¾” bolts and two 3/8” vacuum
caps.
On the exhaust side of the motor, remove the chrome
carb cover by undoing the screw in the center and pulling the cover down from the chrome air scoop. You will
see 2 small chrome tubes connecting to a small hose
behind the cover. Simply disconnect the hose from each
chrome tube. Insert one ¾” bolt into each hose, and
install one 3/8” vacuum cap onto each chrome tube.
Reinstall the carb cover.
Required Parts:
•
Phillips head screwdriver
•
Needlenose pliers
•
(2) 3/4” x 1” carriage bolts
•
(2) 3/8” vacuum caps
Special Thanks to Leroy Beal!
