    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Are the early GSXR CV flat slides any better performancewise than the round slide CVs from the GS? I have a chance at a set of GSXR750 34mm flatslides for cheap. I know you don't get the full advantage of non-cv carbs, but any better?
 
Go for it. You need to get some K&Ns for them since you won't be able to use the airbox.
They will be fun to jet but you'll have better bottom end.

Wonder if the K&N's for my round slide 34mm CVs will fit, should right? Also wonder if the jets will fit, my 34mm round slides have a dynojet kit in them.

Depending on the year the intakes of the gsxr 34mm carbs could be oval shaped in which case your K&N's wont fit.

The jets may well fit but i doubt very much that they will be the correct size to have it running sweet & i'm unsure about the needles

Having said all that the swap is well worth taking the time to do :)
 
The K&Ns won't fit. The ones that do double up and there are only two of them.
 
That set wound up going higher than I wanted to pay, but they are everywhere for 150.00, so If I'm patient I bet I can find a set for $100.00 over the next month or two unless something better falls in my lap. I saw how available they are and wanted to make sure it was an upgrade worth doing. I have a set of CV roundslides on the bike and a spare set of CV roundslides with one damaged body (broken float pin post) so if I find a set should be able to sell off some old carbs and basically have them for free.
