    Carb float height: GS 550 L 1981 UK spec.

    'ello all. Just a quick question. What is the float height for a 1981 GS 550 L (UK spec) and how are they adjusted? Do you hold them upside down, sideways or the right way up? Is the height adjusted from the edge of the carb to the top of the float?

    I'm putting the carbs back together so I wanted to check the heights. Can anyone help?

    Ian, float height is 22.4mm +/- 1.0mm.

    Cliff's site shows how to measure:

    79 GS1000S (another one)
    80 GSX750
    80 GS550
    80 CB650 cafe racer
    75 PC50 - the one with OHV and pedals...
    75 TS100 - being ridden (suicidally) by my father
