Yosh or Micron would be my choice. Question, what's the header that you're running, and could you repack the Yosh to make it sound better?

Nice work, I have a large box of spare carbs that I dig through and pull parts off of as needed. I'm hoping to convert all of my bikes to flat slides before I run out of spare parts.
-
I double checked and the parts sites I use don't have those o-rings listed for the carbs, so no part number to verify. Probably a Mikuni supplied part, same as the white plastic pieces, as Suzuki probably only included them in replacement carb bodies. I found an o-ring part number on another site, but when I cross referenced it, it only showed a bunch of dirt bikes. It's probably some standard sized o-ring, but Suzuki didn't list them on the standard parts fiche.

Try this place. The parts diagrams usually don't have the carbs broken down that far to show that o-ring and you're right, I don't think most of the kits include it. https://litetek.co/Carb_Kit_Suzuki_GSXR750_91_M.html They also have a UK distributor you should be able to get them from.

Only some markets got the BST40s on the GSXR 1100s. Here in the states and parts of Europe they came with BST36s, those intakes are the same as the MK1 Bandit 1200s and will also fit RS36/38 carbs. The 88/89 GSXR 750 rubbers which ideal for RS36/38s have been discontinued for a long time. They're also the same part that came on the MK1 GSXF750s, but unless you can find some NOS somewhere, they're most likely hard and cracked now. The Bandit and GSXF 600s don't really interchange with anything and are best ignored. Early GSXF750s had dot heads and intakes, later have long stroke heads. Might help to add a column for which ones are still available from Suzuki, as most of the ones in yellow I don't think are anymore. Also every model will have 4 different part numbers, a lot of those only have the first one listed. Not sure on the sizing for Keihin carbs, and I think only WC versions are available to buy now. Haven't seen any new ones for OC spacing in years.

RS Carbs… generally work straight out of the box?
Upshotknothole replied to Brians 7/12's topic in Oil Cooled
I have RS38s on an 1127 and they're boring in town, but they make up for it in the mountains where they can be wide open. If I was going to be sensible and it was going to spend most of it's time in town I'd probably go with RS36s for more usable bottom end power. -
There's a spacer between the dog bones that sits in the bearings in the swing arm, is that bolt on the dog bones tight? They're not going to be pressed right up again the swing arm as they have to turn freely.

I don’t think blue is really heat resistent.

Threadlock 1303 is the same as red loctite, the permanent stuff.
-
Can you post up some photos? Mk1 and Mk2 alternators look totally different.
-
Inazuma 1200? I'd guess it's under the seat or one of the side covers. We never got those bikes here in the states, but most CDIs are usually in that part of the tail.
-
I think they changed them between Mk1 and Mk2. Do you have a Mk2 alternator? All the old GSXRs were only two wires, but I think the MK2 alternator has the two wires in the T shaped connector and a separate lead on the back of the alternator for the charging wire. Not at home right now or I'd go look at my Mk2 bandit engine and harness to double check.

Hindle is pretty much it for new exhausts unless Yoshimura ever decides the slingshots are worthy of new exhausts again. Otherwise Eblag or the various other online marketplaces are going to be your best bet.

RF900 front end or….. ?
Upshotknothole replied to Tony Nitrous's topic in Water Cooled, V-Twins, Singles and 2-strokes
That looks like an RF900 top triple. Are there part numbers on the fork lowers that you can see? -
I used to have a real ratty slingshot that was my city commuter bike. Flat black paint, dual headlights off a Triumph. Something I didn't really care if it spent the night outside of a bar. Was getting off the bike one evening after parking it outside of a bar and someone said "nice ducati" to me. I think a lot of these people only know the difference between full fairing and naked bikes.
