    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...

    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.

Mikuni RS34's on a GS1000G head.

Agemax

Forum Guru
I am currently building up a spare GS1000G head to fit on my 1085 GS1000. what inlet rubbers do i need to accomodate the RS34's? Stock GS1000G rubbers i believe are 42mm spigot size so will they be to big for the 40mm spigot on the 34's or will they tighten up ok?

Is there an alternative rubber that will fit the G head with 40mm spigot size?

TIA
 
UPDATE; seems i read it wrong when i looked into buying them.
The RS34-D21-K SERIES i have purchased are indeed 42mm spigot size so they fit perfectly in the stock inlet rubbers.

If you are in the UK and thinking of buying a set of these, i purchased a brand new set from a seller in the USA and including shipping and import tax i saved around ?300 if i was to buy them from a stockist in the UK. They were delivered to my door in 7 days so superfast delivery too.
 
Wondering why you went with the 34mm instead of 36mm especially with the 1085 kit?

Any chance you purchased from this vendor?

Yes Steve, it was that vendor i purchased them from, they had a good deal on so thats why i chose them.
I went for the 34's after a lot of research and asking people what their experience is with them. The main consensus was that the 34's would be much better for all round street fun, driveability and fuel consumption.

I am not getting any younger now and rarely go "racing" about and rarely hit WOT so wasn't looking for outright BHP performance.
