    Can anyone translate this GS1100 GSX1400 German to English?

    Not sure on that, as I don't understand any German. Mostly interested in the engine details, 1400cc at 180-200 HP or PS. That and the weight savings, 400 lbs finished bike? I would like a bike or package like this, but retain a more original look and color. Twin Ohlins shocks, widened swing arm...

    Can anyone translate this GS1100 GSX1400 German to English?

    Hi all, found this cool article about a GS1100 (or GSX1100 in other parts of the world), but cannot get any of the usual translate sites to work with it. They all say it is too large? http://www.powered-by-mende.de/docs/MO_Artikel.pdf Thanks in advance, Joe

    What is the best throttle assembly and cables for Mikuni smoothbores ?

    Hi Norm, Thanks for the info. Funny, but the 135 main jets for a start is exactly what RapidRay recommended. The carbs came loaded with 130 mains, so will go try finding some 135's tomorrow, especially since I am at sea level most the time, with lots of cool moist weather. I did start the bike...

    What is the best throttle assembly and cables for Mikuni smoothbores ?

    Do you have a Maico 490? I have been riding, racing, collecting, restoring Maico's since 1986. Have 7 Maico 490's currently. Prefer the 1981-82 piston port 490, best mx engine ever made. Kinda like a GS1100/1150 or 426 hemi, fast and fun, with lots of room to hot rod them.

    What is the best throttle assembly and cables for Mikuni smoothbores ?

    I am switching to a set of 33mm Mikuni smoothbores for my 1982 GS1100ez. It has the stock throttle assembly and single cable for the stock CV carbs. It looks like the Mikuni smoothbores are designed for a double cable, push/pull throttle assembly. Any advice on the best available throttle...

    Need base line jetting for Mikuni 33mm smooth bores for 1982 GS1100EZ

    Does anybody have a good base line jetting spec for Mikuni 33mm smooth bores, for a 1982 GS1100EZ? The bike's engine is stock. Has a new MotoGP 4-1 pipe and silencer, and new K&N oval pods. The bike ran real good till I put a Dynojet #3133.001 stage three kit in it. Runs like crap now, and just...

    GSX-R 1100 40mm cv carbs on a GS1100?

    Ya, I paid $200 for these, they look new, in the factory box, with velocity stacks and a push/pull throttle . I just might throw them on for a quick try. Just wish I owned a chassis dyno....

    GSX-R 1100 40mm cv carbs on a GS1100?

    How about 40mm RS Mikuni's ? How about 40mm RS Mikuni's ? Do you think I could get a set of 40mm RS Mikuni's to work on my bike for street use? The reason I ask, is I have a set of almost new ones. Or anyone want to trade for a like set of 36 RS Mikuni's ? Just want something better for the...

    GSX-R 1100 40mm cv carbs on a GS1100?

    Was just wondering if anyone on here has used Mikuni 40mm flat slide CV carbs from a 1993 or so GSX-R 1100 onto a 1983 GS1100e. The GS1100 has a 1170cc kit, ported head and performance valve job with stock size valves, V&H pipe, and K&N pods. If the spacing on the rack is wrong, can I mount the...

    Re: 1600cc street engjne Re: 1600cc street engjne From my limited research, heat is what most guys are worried about. But it is usually second hand info, have not seen or talked with anyone yet who has actually built and ran one of these on the street and had issues. On the APE web site, they...

    1600cc street engine?

    Just wondering if anybody on here has ever built a 1500-1600cc street engine? Not a race engine, but something that will live mostly on the street, using 92 octane pump gas? If you have built something like this, how many street miles have you gotten out of her before a rebuild was needed...
