[GSXF 600 flatslide CARBS]

No mine was a 1200 with twin k&N ovals and a st3 Dyno jet kit,never put it on a Dyno . I don't know why the 600s seem so sensitive to pods wether it is the smaller amount of airflow creates a weaker vacuum as it passes over the jets I'm not really sure tbh .

On a different note a guy I knew years ago built a chop based on an xj650 single top tube dropped seat rail type frame and modified the air box so that he used the front section then fitted a plate over the hole where the rear section was removed and to that plate fitted old Brit bike style round air filter would something like that work on your build ? 

Not sure I have enough room but my old bandit 600 run fine on pods, I remember just upjetting it but not sure by how much, I will try your idea with the airbox rubbers, filters and probably a jet kit.

Cheers for your help

If you are serious about rs flatslides on a 600 bandit/gsxf, the 34mm is the smallest they do as far as I am aware, 2mm up on the stock size more than enough for any n/a 600. But unless you are competing in a capacity limited series you really would be better of with a bigger engine as a starting point... In my opinion for what that's worth . 

Hi Daz, I use the 600s in my bikes as I ride choppers, there plenty fast enough for me and very predictable, I used a fazer 600 in my last build which incorporated an airbox and it runs perfectly,  the bandit dose not have room for an airbox so I need to use either flat slides or filters. I read your last answer about the airbox rubbers and sock filters. I now realise the RS carbs are now only really available for the bigger engines so will try your idea. So when you used the airbox rubbers and filter socks did you fit a dyno jet kit then take it to be set up on a dyno?

Do any of you use flat slide carbs on mk1 600 bandits?

What do you recommend?

Many thanks

Bandit 600, I'm building a chop so there's no room for an airbox as such, when I built it the first time around years ago it run well on pod filters, I just can't remember  the combination that I used

Hi, I guess you have been asked this loads of times so forgive me for asking again.

I have a 96 gsx600f I would like to run it on pod filters, years ago I asked the same question and someone just told me to change the main jet to a certain size, (???)  this worked fine first time.

Would anyone know the best settings for the carbs to run well on filters please?

Many thanks.
