    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.

So what happened with this? I wanted to know how much of a boost those 2mm bigger carbs gave the 1100.
 
I am still working on mine but I wil give you a comparison when done.

I think RJ's and mine are supposed to be the slingshot carbs which I believe are the semi flatsides. Scotty I thought I read somewhere you had a set but hadn't put them on yet...but that was a while ago.

I picked them up because of what I read on this site. I want to see how they work.
yes i still have a set of 36mm semi flats from a 1996 750 Katana. They are spotless and still have the stock jetting in them. I got threm off ebay for just about $100 and sunk almost that amount into them for the parts i needed to modify them to a manual choke mounted on the left side of the carbs. i also modified an air box to go with them with a piece of very large pvc union cut and epoxied into it so i could run a huge K&N.
The idea is to have max air flow and not lose the dead air effect that the air box gives.
Now i wont use it because my gsxxxrrr 750 will get a set of real flatslides.
 
Hey Issac,
Now that I have finally got my 36mm carbs set up and running well(except for an intemittent oil seep, but that is another story), my 83 1100e seems to accelerate harder and pull a lot harder at the midrange and top end. Keeping in mind that the stock carbs that came with my bike were in pretty bad shape. Hopefully I will get a chance to ride with some of my fellow GSR bretheren some time this summer, and get a comparison with another 1100.
