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.
Has he contacted you?
He purchased a set of replacement carbs to fix for Keso since the ones sent to him were in such bad shape which just arrived in the last couple of weeks. Between that, his regular job as a Biomed, and working on remodeling part of his house, he's been pretty busy. Then, unfortunately, his brother-in-law also passed away this last week so he and his sisters are dealing with that right now.
I have offered to rebuild whatever carbs Kelly finds for free, problem is he can't find any decent cores and Steve has his. We have no idea what happened to Steve and the carbs. As of a few months back it didn't appear that he was ill but for some reason there is radio silence.
And that was over six months ago. What's the excuse now? Oh I know, he's busy looking for Stator's journal...
Thanks for the offer tom! If anyone has a spare #1 laying around please chime in. I assume a 550 #1 would work as well? Maybe a slight difference in the air jet though?

Thanks for the help guys?.I have never had an issue like this and if any of Steve?s friends would like to see his previous replies to me in PM and my email it will show you that my carbs had a few issues that Steve could correct but was having trouble with 2 broken needles stuck in the carb bodies? then he would not reply anymore. If he?s sick I?m sorry but he could still send my carbs back?I consider them now to be stolen. I really appreciate the help I?m getting from some of you in this matter and hope this bike will ride again! Kelly
This is weird. I have always held Steve in high regard. He can be a bit crusty at times but is knowledgeable and helpful. He has always seemed devoted to the GSR purpose of people sharing info and helping each other. This situation is eerily similar (almost a carbon copy) to the way his friend, The Cafe Kid, left this site. Hard to figure. I will withhold judgement but it is definitely odd how long it has rocked along.
I have a whole rack of CV, origin unknown. Free for the hauling. These have been stored indoors for about 20 years. The screws on these have proven stubborn; I could ungang #1 to cut down on shipping cost.
(What Suzukis came with CV's with tops that had "Mikuni Corporation" cast into them? I don't recall any, but I'm only really familiar with the 850 / 1000's.)
The BS32 Mikuni's on my GS650g have " Mikuni Kogyo Co LTD Japan" on the CV tops. I believe that at least the GS550's used the same carbs. Perhaps some other models as well but with different rack spacing? Evidently, they were also used on Kawasaki CSR and maybe a Yamaha.

Thanks everyone for the help? would be great if Steve would just send them back to me but he?s not responding? robertbarr and tom203 pm?s sent.
I'm now in possession of the bits and pieces offered up by the community here, and I'll do my best to restore them and replace the carbs that have gone missing.
Tom's carbs look good, but the replacement #1 is slightly different. Hopeing that doesn't matter. I doubt it will.
Looks like I've got a christmas holiday project. I'll try to do the community proud and help out Mr. Keso.

You’re a heck of a good guy, Ed. Merry Christmas.
