    Fitting a set of VM 29 Smoothbores to a 16v GSX head. Are there suitable rubbers or is it a case of pinching down the existing rubbers?

    Opologies, senior moment, i now understand what your asking:/

    the ones beside the oil filter cover are 14*1.5. The ones on the side of the head  and behind the pickup cover are 14*1.25

    They are bike specific but you'd really be pushed to notice any difference they make in real world conditions!

    Nice one, Cheers thanks for that

     

  4. Hello folks

    Looking for an atu for my 1100 kat engine ( has nothing fitted) , some other early gsx/gs models look the same albeit different part numbers, woundered if these were compatible or are they bike specific with different weight/spring rates etc

    Cheers

  5. Hopefully if i can pass the dreaded noise test I'm hoping to take my fairly (opologies for offending anyone) " standard" katana on track, just for the grin factor

    Normally most people reduce the psi in their tyres for track use, Mr Suzuki has a sticker on the rear Mudguard recommending you increase your tyre pressure for continuous high speed riding, which way should i go, cheers

    Deffo not std carbs though but would be interested to establish what they are off.

    Me to bud,still seaching, tend to end up going in circles though, thanks for your input (y)

  9. Thank you all for your great input and time,as mentioned above, as its running so well i shall leave it for now but i do have 4 x new 132.5 jets that i might fit just to see what happens,  i also now vaguely recall the previous owner saying he spent alot of time setting the carbs up, but shrugged it off as usual selling bike banter, but now i believe it could be true (y)

  10. Sorry no manual, i never realised that the jets can be different sizes, and yes all over the place but running well

     

    No your right, not standard carbs,and breathing pipercross airfilters, am hoping someone can tell me what there from

  11. Apologies for long post, hope it makes sence, basically I'm checking valve clearance's on my GS1000, i noticed all the plugs are a light grey, although not done a plug chop my last ride was on track so was wondering if i needed to richen it up slightly so i checked main jet sizes

    Cylinder 1 = 127.5

    Cylinder 2 = 145

    Cylinder 3= 127.5

    Cylinder 4 =142.5

    As i mentioned all plugs identical colour, bike starts on the button, crisp throttle response, very smooth from idle to redline, exhaust tip light grey, its only because I'll be doing more track time this year i was considering a richer mix but with all the different jet sizes maybe I'll leave it, any advice appriciated 

    Cheers
