Glad your not to bad.
Had it happen to me twice in the past not fun

Was that with engine running?

Not an expert but high performance street\strip sounds more like what you say you will be doing
Valve float is more about revs than boost I think.

could be your riding style is more economic.
Last year I took my boss' car to Holland and back (in total 3200 km) and my average speed was higher and fuel consumption lower than when he drove it on the same trip.
Could be but at the time 20 + years ago we were both considered to be nutters lol

Improvements in efficiencies will skew the results but 'generally, as a rule of thumb' - 1 bhp needs 'x' volume of fuel in a linear fashion.
I can only go off what I have personally seen.
Me and a mate both had EFEs dynoed on same day same dyno.
Mine made 118 but his 108 bhp.
Through constantly running about together mine was 10 -20 % better on fuel consumption.
We did a lot of riding together that summer and it was always the same

Maybe but 140 odd hp against std 100hp is a 40% increase in fuel so . . . . .!
40% ingress in power is not necessarily a 40% increases in consumption

Somewhere very close to the combustion chamber I would have thought.
How are you going to calibrate it?

Thats an ordinary silver metallic with green and gold decals.
Modern photos of same thing here :

I think what @imagois talking about is just a yellowed out vintage photo of the same thing ?
I think there is a cream or white version too .
Only seen photos of it.
Think it is fairly rare in the UK

Don't think it would be a Japan 1100ET colour scheme.
Maybe a 750 one.
Don't think they used anything bigger than 750 officially.
I think if you were in Japan and wanted bigger at the time you had to grey import one back into Japan from another country

I’ve seen a few over the years but all Grey imports. AU used to get quite a few used Jap vehicles. I’ve seen a lot more Skylines here than the UK. When I worked at the Port it was common to see a row of cars and vans coming in.
On the whole AU is a lot closer to the UK in what official imports it gets, with the exception of not following Euro-4 / 5 so we still get stuff the UK drops.
I do like the GS1200 and I’d love to find one within my budget. Same with the “looks like a Zephyr” Inazuma 1200. Both my style of bikes and based on mechanicals I’m a fan of.
I absolutely love them.
Problem here is they are so rare they fetch massive premium.
Last one I saw for sale they were asking 8k.
I like them but not that much.
I didn't pay that for my mag4 LOL

Not sure but don't think any are direct fit.
Most will need some alterations to rear mount.
Think all gsx1100 will fit with some minor fab work

Did they ? That’s interesting.
I’ve only seen Jap home market / Grey imports. Never seen one in a Suzuki dealership.The GS1200SS and Inazuma 12 are both on my wish list.
I may be wrong but thought they were official in Aus and New Zealand.
Don't think they sold loads.
Had a look and can't find any info.
Think I saw one for sale a while ago that was imported from Australia but that may have been grey import to Australia in the first place

Hi welcome to OSS.
As said bandit or inazuma will be closest.
May be worth trying australia Eblag as they had the bike as official import

How the memory fades over time
After scratching my head as to where the other plug is for the CDI was, and digging out all the spair cdi's and pickups. I've now remember I've got a 1052 harness on the bike
so I can just plug the 1052 CDI box and pickups straight in 
Any better?
