    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.

I'm looking for donor or replacement carbs for my '79 gs750e and they are turning out to be rather hard to find. what other bikes took the same carbs? are there other bikes with different carbs that could still fit? I'm looking at some carbs from a '80 kz1000 on e-bay and wondering if they would fit or at least have parts that I could use

If the 80's model carbs will fit, you can look at GSXR carbs. I fitted a set from an 86 GSXR with no problems
 
My bike came with VM29 smoothies, while trying to tear them down I got the main air jet on one body stuck, drilling out isn't working. MisterCinders gave me a basket-case rack of VM26ss, but I'm still missing parts. When I started the thread I had some pilot air screws stuck, but I got them out, now I just need parts, I can handle it from here on out.

I'm really just curious what other carbs would work. I seem to remember hearing that CB750 carbs would fit. It would be wonderful to figure out a way to adapt the bike to EFI, but I hear thats quite difficult if even possible.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/carb-...Q5fAccessories I actually made a bid on these and don't want to go over $25 seeing that I really dont need them anymore. I'll use some parts from my VM29's and buy the rest from cycleorings and Z1
