    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I have now totally stripped the carbs on my GS850 1982, ready for dipping and the instalation of my O ring kit.:o

Having just measured the carbs I discover that the are 34mm instead of the 32mm ones that should be fitted.:confused:

Can any one help with main jet size, I am running with a 4 into 1 header pipe and custom exhaust from the footpegs back.:confused:

The air box is standard with new filter in place of the pair of ladys stockings that were in there!:mad:

Thanks as always.

Bozza,

What jet sizes are in there now?

Do your carbs have an adjustable needle?

Are you adding the 4-1 , or was it perhaps already jetted for it?

Can't see any numbers on the jets ? cheap copies.

Carbs do not have adjustable needle "standard?"

The 4 into 1 was already on it.

The PO had pods on the bike but could not get it to run, so he sold it to the guy I bought if from. He put the airbox back on so that she ran but poorly, then I bought it. Hence the new air filter, in place of the stockings and the carb strip.

Cheers

Look closer at the jets - they should have a number on them and a box in box symbol if they're mikuni's

Per Chef - 117.5 Mikuni jets for stock airbox/header

You may need to go with a DJ kit to get a thinner needle
