Looking for info on the mikuni carbs on this gs1000. Looking into ordering a carb kit and not really sure what all i need. Im not sure what year it is as its not in the original bike. I believe it to be a 79........thanks

Is this a decent set of sync guages for the money? Anyone have experience with them

The Morgan Carbtune is the preferred carb guage.

I have a set of those gauges pictured. they work fine, only problem is the pipes are not very good. I replaced mine with silicone pipe and they are more flexible.

What were the factory size main jets for the vm26 carbs? Mine appear to be 112.5.
Say i wanted to run some k&n pods, would a bigger jet and needle height change be necessary? The clip on the needles are in the middle slot.

standard mains are 95. if you want to run pods and you have a 4 into 1 exhaust then go for a Dynojet stage 3 kit.

I assume this is what yall refer to as a 4 to 1 pipe

Thanks.....its not the fanciest but works. Its the "poor boy" version....lol
Most all the others i run with are running newer fuel injected gixxers and busa's.
I currently have all the sheet metal off and am in the process of setting valves and adj carbs. I just got the carbs cleaned and put back on.

The mains ranged from 97.5 to 105. See the chart below.
