    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Hello everyone!I'm Sebastian, from Argentina, currently living in Barcelona. I have a gs450, which is almost ready, I have reconditioned the engine and customized a little the aesthetics.
Currently it does not runs well, since I was almost two years without using it. that's why I was thinking of buying some gs500 carbs and see what happens.. haha.

don't know why the photo is flipped.. im new at this, anyway nice to meet you all
 
Welcome to GSR.

Thanks for introduction and picture.

Maybe describe more detail about "not runs well". Maybe we can then suspect if problem is carburation or ignition, then can post in whichever section for further advise. I thinkk that would be more productive than swapping to some other unknown carburators.
Although, after sitting unused for 2 years I would suspect carbs need a good cleaning.

thanks! of course, first im gonna use the search in order to not make a question that is already answered haha..
the swap is because mi carbs have gone through many different hands, and missing original parts, differents screws and floats.. a little Frankenstein, so I think that starting with new ones will be easier. Once it is working well, I will begin to tidy up everything.
and then start with my other two.. i also have a GS250 and a TS185ER, waiting for time and money to reborn...
