Rsquire, good morning and greetings from Rosemont.....just south of Folsom Blvd and a wee bit East of Watt.......
Came across your beautiful GS 1100E posts. I have owned my 83 GS 1100E since new. I have done all maintenance and upgrades myself.....initial 600 mile service and an under warranty cracked cylinder replacement are the only exceptions.
Carburetors and popping and idle increases when warm etc..... I know of what you speak. Mixture screws and highest idle or smoothness....understood. My GS retains factory exhaust and airbox. I upped main jet to 115. Pilots at present are 45. Had 47.5 for a while....seems I could not 'adjust out' what appeared to be a slightly rich condition.
I recently purchased a complete ED. Bit of a basket case to be resurrected soon. Is a runner.....12,870 miles.....non op status at present...and previously for about 15 years......maybe more.
Anyway, if I can be of service to you or share experience etc. glad to be of assistance.
My post count is low.... That said, I initially joined this forum October 2006. 800 plus posts. Mostly tech related. Fell of the ledger 4 years or so ago....'delisted' ...no activity. Anyway... Grand Rouge has been handle forever.....
At 76, I ride a few times a week. Have an 05 Honda ST1300 for a bit of a change of pace. Was a project too....pretty sweet now.
If you wish, text or call me or PM or.... Dallas Reagh 916 899 3191
