    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.

I was wondering I have a GS 550ESD and I think I have carbs off of a EF, ESF because the jets are 90 and 97.5 and the thottle valve reads 110. The ESD should have jets of 95 and 102.5 and a thottle valve of 120. Can I use my present carbs or should I try to find the ESD carbs.
 
Re: Carbs not right please help

You can order the jets you want from you local dealer or online for a couple dollars each. Other than the jetting, I'm reasonably sure the carbs would be the same. If the bike is running well andf the plugs now are burning a light brown to tan color, youre fine and done even need to rejet.

There's quite a bit of variance in jetting depending on intake system and exhaust.

I am wondering if I have the wrong carbs on will it restrict my HP. And would carbs made for an EF with 110 throttle valve and 97.5 and 90 make my ES weaker.

The carbs are likely the same but may have different jets. I have a set of Katana carbs on my GS1100E and the carbs are the same but the jets are slightly bigger.
