GS1000 ST carbs


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

HI,

I have a set of Mikuni Kogyo carbs fitted to my GS1000ST. I have an issue finding a UK based supplier who has o rings, specifically the ones on the pilot jet and float valve body. Can any one suggest a supplier who knows Mikuni carbs based in the UK? As this bike is a grey import, it's difficult locating parts specific to this bike and would appreciate some info on who  I can call to get parts. I seem to find plenty of suppliers who know little about these carbs.

The specific model of carb, stamped on the body is PC 491/20 Any ideas or where I can find a parts diagram for these would be great.

Second question - The horns fitted to this bike are the standard Hi and Lo type. The connectors have a O and a Y stamped on them.  Any idea if these have a preferred polarity?

Cheers

Steve

Thanks Fazz,

I will give Allens a try tomorrow. 

Any idea what these carbs are called, are they the VM series? Or what are they, see picture on first post.

Cheers

Steve

They are slide carbs. 

Not sure of the official name but if you talk to the and say slide carbs sure they can help. 

They have been doing carbs for very long time and have good rep
