Believe me I thought about it... but I've always wanted to learn to do the EFI thing. So I've bought a microsquirt and now I'm committed to sourcing the rest. More satisfaction in the end I figure

Thanks again guys. As advised I've decided it's not worth pissing around with, will keep my eye out for another set of BST36's for a fair price. I do have all winter. In the mean time I've been doing lots of research on EFI conversions. I'm a nerdy guy so I think that'll probably be the route I eventually take. It's expensive but it feels a lot better spending a G or so on the goodies for an EFI swap than spending 300-400 on some 30 year old carbs. I'll start collecting parts as the deals pop up

Thanks for the info guys, appreciate ya scouring the archives for that on!! I suppose I'll just keep looking out for another set of 36mm carbs for awhile longer before I pull the trigger on some boots. They're not cheap anymore! It's good to know that there is an option, albeit a shitty alternative that is hard to tune. It's cheaper and could work for the time being. The plan eventually is to apply some boost to this B12 setup, in that case, the tuning difficulties and diminished bottom end would still be present with the 40mm carbs wouldn't it?

Thanks for the replies guys, I'm not sure if it's a matter of this 750W being a Canadian bike, or if the carbs were swapped in the past, but these are 40mm carbs.

After a series of unfortunate events I'm out a set of BST36 carbs for my Bandit 1200 motor and out of pure cheapness I'm considering sticking on a set of '92 750W BST40 carbs that I have laying around instead. Though a bit of searching I've found some info ¹ ² that suggests late model 1100M and 1100N boots will work well enough to adapt these chonkers if arranged in following order: #2, #2, #3, #3. The carbs I have are 46mm OD, 40mm ID, 85-90-85 spacing. This all sounds good to me, where I'm a bit confused is in the part numbers. So what I can see referenced is 13120-41C0 and 13130-41C0, but what I can find on suzuki parts sites are 13120-41C00 and 13130-41C00 which are superseded by 13102-41C01 and 13103-41C01, so my question is: Can anyone confirm that the 13102-41C01 and 13103-41C01 for sure the correct boots to be using to adapt my BST40 750W carbs to my Bandit engine? It seems pretty cut and dry, I don't see why not, I just want to make sure before throwing money at it. Aside from that, I gather using these bigger carbs will kill some low end torque. Just how bad would it be? Don't have a huge stash of GSXR parts handy or even in my area so trying to get by with what I have... Thanks!
