    A note to new registrants...

    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.

Would gs1150 carbs be a good upgrade for an 81 1000g?

Are you installing a big-bore kit and some (somewhat) radical cams, along with pods and a very free-flowing pipe? :-k

If not, it might be too much carb.

If you are keeping the bike on the street, smaller carbs will keep velocities up inside the carb, which helps the moving air pick up and atomize the fuel.

Yes, the diaphragms and slides help a lot, but it still might be too much of a good thing, especially on a stock engine.

well it has pods and a vance and hines on it already. my head gasket is leaking oil down the side of the block, my options right now are top end freshen up to include
slight porting by me
radius valve job
deck the head. .020? unless advised against
valve adjustments by me
and degree stock cams by me

or

buy one of ricks 1100s for it and drop in and cruise. but thats out of my price range for now as i have a machinist buddy who does all the bike stuff for one of the shops in town and can do up my stuff for next to nothing..........
