    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...

Hello everyone! Ok new to this forum...I'm building a 79 Suzuki gs1000 brat and I'd like to know wats size jets to use with 4 into 1 exhaust and pod filters?
 
Also I heard thru the grapevine that some members would rebuild my carbs for a good price(one guy wants 560 plus shipping and another wants 50 a carb) lol any help would be appreciated I'm trying to build my dream bike but on a budget.
 
Well you can redo them yourself for around 90 bucks or so with new orings and new bowl gaskets. Im gonna ost a list of links so check them out.

Be sure to refresh the intake manifold orings as shwon on page 3 of Cycleorings website. Measure the INSIDE diameter of the oring groove but I thin k yours will be 38MM. Look in the menu at Bikecliff for a service manual.
 
Need a little more information about your pipe and pods. :-k

Knowing that it's a "4 into 1" is great, but what happens after the collector? Megaphone with street baffle? Megaphone with competition baffle? No baffle? (Shame on you. :oops:) Those choices will affect air flow, therefore, jetting requirements.

As far as "pods", are they the cheap EMGO pods that cost about $25? UNI (foam) pods? APE pods? K&N pods? Again, these choices affect air flow, and to a greater degree than exhaust choice.

There are many members of the forum that have had Chuck rebuild their carbs and are very happy with his work. I also do carbs, but not so much with the VM carbs like yours. I recommend Chuck for your rebuild. :encouragement:

Thanks for the endorsement Steve. I try to be as helpful as I can. I always recommend doing them yourself so the new guys can learn a new skill. However if my service is needed I am here.
 
Lol if I get too overwhelmed I'm sending them to Chuck! But I've seen the tutorial he sent me and it's VERY thorough and step by step...I think I can do it
