I have an 06 500 and when i pull up to garage and put on kickstand it idles for about 10-seconds then stalls like running out of fuel. Carbs are very clean and it appears the petcock is clean due to pulling off fuel line at petcock and fuel runs out. Any ideas?

 

The carbs are clean, but what is the float level set at? Granted, 10 seconds on the 500 is not long for running out of fuel. Next thought: have you bypassed the sidestand switch for testing?

 

moved so that our gurus can help out.

 

Adjusted floats to 17mm. Still stalls while on kickstand and with kickstand up and tilted to left. Runs fine when tilted to right. Didn't totally disassemble carbs and clean but float bowl and rest of carbs looks very clean.
Any other ideas?

This may be a stretch......how old is your oil? Correct level? Just a hunch....

 

hell of a hunch jeff. got me scratching....would this cause a idle issue or a clutch and gear issue while running issue?

edit: LOL

 

Drag, I was thinking about possible oil starvation and/or oil passage arteriosclerosis on an '06 engine. (You already know this) when a bike is leaned over on the stand, the right side of the valve train and cam chain doesn't always get the lube it needs. Some bikes are real sensitive to oil pressure and cleanliness, especially if the filter is old. I know; it was a stretch.... Probably more fuel related, but I was just free associating.

 

Still awaiting the op's reply....
