80 GS1100E stock jetting

[wink1]

I was needing the stock jetting specs for an 80 GS 1100E,I stumbled on an old Kerker 4/1 for it ,havent pulled the carbs yet was wondering what stock jetting is supposed to be.Bike is completely stock,wondering what jetting changes may have to be made.

Have you considered checking the sticky thread titled "Carb OEM specs as per factory manuals" at the top of this forum?

This should help, not all GSR members treat new members with an attitude. (Driving away new members.)
Hang in there!



Plenty of helpful folks around this place.

that is a nice list but doesn't have the 1100 listed. Cliff has the manual on his website though.

Probably go up 2-3 steps to 115-117 Mikuni when using a 4:1 pipe on stock bike without pods.

I thought that I saw them.

Like I already said...what's wrong with the carb spec sticky on the top of this very forum? http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...ad.php?t=73723

You can lead a horse to water...

Since you ask I would say it is a little too spread out. If Oldtimer (Ryan) would consolidate it back to the top it might be more useful.

Otherwise I just look in my manual.

On my bone stock 80 GS1100E with a Vance & Hines pipe with no glass in it & a K&N filter with the filter box top removed, I run 115 Mikuni jets at 3750 ft altitude, stock pilot jets, a dyno jet needle in the middle clip & the mixture screw 3 turns out. Most of my riding is in the mountains running up to 10,000 ft. You might want to go to 117s. Your results may vary, it works for me. Im am certainly no expert at this either. Help from other posters on this subject like posplayr helped me to come up with this setup.

Does this "help"?

My 80 GS1100 had 107.5s in it from the factory along with 45 pilots, I dont care what the chart says it should have. Every year is different, I dont know what year that chart is for either

Hi,

Compiled from the information submitted in the "OEM Carb Spec" thread:

Suzuki GS Series Carb Specs

You'll find a lot more information collected on that guy's site, like manuals and junk.




Thank you for your indulgence,

Although all things matter to some degree, the intake makes the most difference whether stock airbox, lid off, K&N filter and lid off, Pods; each requires a step up in main jetting.

For good bottom to top end performance I'd go with 47.5 pilot jets/117.5 main jets and remove the airbox lid.
