    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.

What To Do With 3 Air Bleed Holes

The "G" are the slower springs ;)
I'd use the 750 springs. The smaller springs in my opinion would slow down the slides. The larger springs compress easier.
Test this theory for me Don.

OK Bill, I will use the larger springs from the GSX750 and see how they perform. I was surprised to see that the carbs off the 750 are the same as the 650 ones that I have and how many parts on them are plastic. The carb top that holds the diapraghm in place and the screw cap that holds the choke mechanism in the carbs are all plastic. Surprising.
 
I had wondered about doing something like that on mine. My throttle hand gets numb very quickly, and I have tried several grip methoods

You should also look at Paresthesia, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Ulnar Tunnel Syndrome (also known as Cubital Tunnel Syndrome), Thoracic outlet syndrome, and Radial Tunnel Syndrome.

Most of these can be dealt with on your own... but addressing them sooner than later is a good idea. They sound a lot worse than they are.

The spacing on the 650 carbs are dfferent than the 750.

Yes, but the carbs are the same themselves, BS32SS.

Thanks again for help.

BTW ONE LAST QUESTION (I hope) the fuel feed "T" that fits between the two centre carbs does not have "O" rings on it. It is just a metal "T" covered in rubberised plasic with raised rings on it which press against the fuel inlet passage on each carb. You cannot fit "O" rings to it. Does this part leak in your experience if put back together as it was.
 
If it does leak, take it out, give it a few wraps of Teflon tape, put it back together.

Great thanks Steve. That's a good solution. I was actually thinking about using some shrink on material to give a good seal, but your solution sounds better.
Thanks.
 
I've never had one leak unless it was cracked.

On the 650-750 carbs. The #2 and #3 are different. #1 and #4 are the same. But yes they measure 32mm but you can't swap them directly.

Yes Bill I just had a look see. One of the centre carbs for the 750 has a fuel inlet directly into the top of the float chamber and from there feeds the other carbs with fuel. It does not have a "T" like the 650 carbs do. And the aluminium fuel pipes between the carbs look more flimsy and only have one "O" ring on each end instead of two on each end as in the case of the 650 carbs.

Learning a lot here about carbs.

THANKS
