Gs 1100 v&h exhaust carb question

[Twister89]

Going to put a 4 into 1 Vance and Hines header and pipe on the gs1100 we recently found (stock pipes rusted through) what carb changes will I need to make? Thanks!

Get a Factory Pro or Dynojet Stage 3 jet kit & a set of APE or K&N oval, pod, air filters. Easy to install jet kit, following instructions, & a good power gain. A LOT easier to remove & install carbs while jetting with the pods instead of the stock airbox!!

If you go with the stock air box with a stock type K&N air filter all you would need to do is up the main jets a couple steps. I would also pull the plugs out of the idle mixture tubes and reset them. They were purposely set lean at the factory and then sealed. Sync the carbs as well.

If you search you will find that the vast majority of people use the DynoJet kit and it is very straight forward. If you use the Factory Pro, Ray will be the only person that can help you.

I just used 117.5, Mikuni jets and backed the mixture screws out to 3 turns and it runs really good. I got that from one of the smarter then me guys on this forum. That's with a K&N drop in filter & the airbox top removed

I have an 82 gs1100e, bogs around 6k rpm, I have a vance and hines 4-1 pipe on there, adjustable jets, any suggestions on how to fix this? It used to bog around 4k, now at 6k. thanks.

See if you can find a decent set of 36MM GS1150 carbs the stage 1&3 dyno jet part #'s are the same foe the 34"s and 36"s V&H Makes a racing baffle for there mega phones that lets the 36"s breath just an idea

I have a stock 1000G with the V and H and I ended up leaning it out one size to make it work for me. YMMV and at the end of the day you'll need to test it, not just throw jets in and call it done.
