george 1100 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Cheap 38's is going to be way better than 36's Quote Link to comment
DAZ Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 If it's a 2002 (mk2) you'll probably have to swap to mk1 inlets too as the later ones (bsr carbs) have a different spacing to earlier gsxr/mk1 bandits (bst carbs) 2 Quote Link to comment

Or should I round up some newer from a mk1 ? Thx for feedback…. Quote Link to comment
DAZ Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 If I remember correctly the early slabside gsxr 1052 had 34mm carbs ( tin tops) so aren't suitable but the 89/90 slingshot 1127 had 36mm carbs (plastic tops) like the bandit 1200. I think the 750 shortstroke motor in the pre98 teapot/gsxf and 88/89 gsxr 750 slingshot also used 36mm bst carbs. The RS carbs in 36mm & 38mm both use a 42mm spigot which should fit the 36mm suzuki intakes ( not mk2bsr types ) Quote Link to comment
