Can you please post a picture - im very interested.

These quick needle change tops are very nice, you see them on race bikes like OW01 and GSX-R RK. Usually, they go hand in hand with a central fuel release fitting, where you can change main jets, without having to unscrew whole float chamber. Do you want to sell the carbs or use them ?

Could get my hands on one of these brand new (looks chinese altough ...), and was wandering if it might be of use for a 600 or 750 blow through application. Does anyone have a flow map ? Could not find any on Google

Dont want to ruin your evening, but.. You forgot the chain too

WOW - what a cool bike ! I'd leave it as it is

Cool bike - i can see a challenge ! For Oil filling you might need a 5 year old, to get his hands within the frame rails to open up the filler cap

I did cut out the flattened parts, reshaped them, and welded them in again on mild steel yoshimura systems. Piece of cake

Looks expensive $$$$$

You need to weld them up, to get from 0.7 clearance to 0.40 .......

Just resleeve the can, dont know about the midpipe

Ahh - now i see - there´s even a sticker on it that tells it

Never understood why people BUY stickers (or even paint a bike with commercial advertising) and put them on their own stuff, to advertise for someone elses business. Maybe to inform the unknown onlooker what he is looking at ?

Hi, i want to fit a slimmer chain kit, original is 630, and i´ve seen 530 as well. But i want even slimmer, as today´s chains are way stronger than back in the day. I did not find anything suitable yet - any recommendations ?

Damn.....it hurts when you read questions like this. No sane person drills and taps the rubbers, unless they want to stuff NOS foggers in there. Just use a bit of imagination, to see where the carb rubber is mounted, and use the same screw to hold that strap on.

Show us ;-)

Get some actual jets in there (i found some reference online when i converted mine years ago - do your research), then reduce main jet size approx by 2.5-5 increments. Will crisp up your fuelling, they come on song approx in the last third of rev-range, and are worth it.

Yeah...and you could speak some prayers on a graveyard around midnight too....don't believe in that BS - ditzing in water won't do nothing to your carbs, maybe the screws get rusty - thats all. Do it properly !

+2 on this subject, the bigger hole will be difficult to keep tight

I had these headers on my Yamaha, and they were absolutely great, and gave very good power too

I would try to get it running first - rusty valve seats maybe

There is no need to only have two S's.....i have three of them.

Just bought a set of new 78 mm MTC pistons intended for a kwaker GPZ - they have 17mm pins, i will get them machined to 18 mm to fit the GS

the GS 1000 here is a 2-valve head
