    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.

Suzuki GS400L - cafe racer - final stage - carburetor ajustment

I have gotten to the final stage in rebuilding a Suzuki GS400L from 1980 into a cafe racer. The final stage is ajusting the carburetur after I have put new exhaust pipes (more open = better Sound, in my opinion) and pod power filters on the bike. The carburetor is a Mikuni BS34 of type CV. I haven't done anything yet, but my question is - does anyone know if I can find a jet kit I can use (since it is of type CV) or should I try to go the manual way and just start with the main jets and just take it from there?

If I go he manual way:
Right now the main jets are 87,5 and from what I have read in here, this means the main jets should be 6 sizes up (102,5) +/- one size up and down (100/105) so I have somthing play with to start out. Does that sound right or does anyone have other suggestions?
