82 GS1100E suttering problem

[posplayr]

a friend of a friend was working on the bike and he said that he was putting larger main jets in to make the bike run better.

one thing you learn with these old bikes is to not trust any Previous Owner (PO).

Since someone has been in there, it would be best to take them off and send them to someone reputable like chef1366 or learn yourself.

i will have to ask the mechanic that has the bike right now if he noticed what size the main jets were

OK ; it is not just jets, it could be float height, needle settings, parts missing who knows what else.

; did you ever check the electrical?

This is sort of a standard recommendation for a 1100E works with Dyna S or stock ignitor.
