    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.

What's up Everyone?

I want to buy a set of Flatslide Carbs for my 83 gs1100e but I don't know what size to get. What size would I need for a stock gs1100e? I already have a 4-1 exhaust.

Thanks, Supavert
 
Did you try the search function? This topic has come up many times before so the answer in the archives...somewhere.

I'm not an expert on aftermarket carbs but I think you want to stay with 36's.
 
36 CV flatslide

36 CV flatslide

The cheapest option are the slingshot carbs which are cv flatslide. 36 is a nice size for a boost to the 1100.

U can tell the 36mm because on the inlet side where the pods would go U need the dual oval intake pods.

There are alot of plastic parts inside, so I would not look for the cheapest set I could find and figure to rebuild. Start with something decent as there are parts that wear like needles and emullsion tubes.

I have three sets now, but none on the GS1100ED yet; but planned

U can go the next step which is RS flatslide ; this can cost $350+. The last nice set I saw was $480.

Get either the 34 mm or 36 mm Mikuni RS flatslides. Do you want new or used? If you want a good set of used 36s, I have a set for sale for 350. Let me know if you are interested. Ray.

If you're pretty handy with carbs buy the gsxr stuff and save a bunch of money, otherwise buy the RSs which are pretty darn near plug and play.
