    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.

Thanks Steve, they are going on my 82 GS850GL. And they should match nicely.

They'll be hanging on this:

In this order for each carb:

simple green, bottle brush, berrymans, carb cleaner, rinse, air, carb cleaner, rinse, air, polish the small bits, masked it off, duplicolor engine enamel primer, duplicolor "aluminum" engine enamel.

Simple. :)

Where did you get the non wimpy Allen screws?

I got the lead like stock screws off but really want to replace them with something like wat you have on yours.
 
It would seem that Mr. Barr only sells the cap screws for the boots. I would like a set for the carbs (caps, and float bowls) Does Mr. Steve happen to know the size of those???

No, but Mr. Suzuki does. :p

Go to the parts fiche for your bike, look at the carb fiche.

Find the screws in question, look at the part number.

Unless you are looking at Bike BANDIT's site, the size of the screw is right after the dash in the middle of the part number.

For example: if the screw part number is 02112-05168, it is an M5 x 16 screw.
