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.

Hello my name is Geronimo, I`m argentinian, I have a gs 550 l 1980

The bike was stopped for years, so I decided to make a carburator cleanup, but when I open them they were in a very bad shape.

The info I need are the values for the jets, to see if I could buy them one by one, cause here in argentina, can`t find the replacement kit.

The carburators are the bs32ss.

I`ll appreciate this info, thank you very much!

Since this is your first post, you haven't received your Megawelcome

It's in the GS Owners section. Go there and tell us more about the bike, and post up pictures!

As to your carbs, they need a good cleaning. There's a guide to cleaning the BS (akaCV) carbs on BassCliff's site.

I don't know what you can get for carb dip in Argentina, so you'll need to research that.

Clean the carbs, get an O ring set from Robert and all you may need is some gaskets for your carbs. If nothing is broken, you can get the carbs up and running in a week or so

If you think you need jets, check the vendors list

Hi Mr. Aztk8tr,

It is possible to order new carb parts. But even if your carbs look bad, usually you can clean them and use them again. Look at the carburetor rebuild guides on my website. You can find a chart with the original carb specifications HERE.

If you are here you probably have a 30 year old motorcycle that needs about 20 years worth of maintenance. In the links below you'll find maintenance lists, documentation, wiring diagrams, "how to" guides, vendor links, tips, tricks, and a whole lot of GS goodness. This is your "mega-welcome". Let's get started. :)

Let me dump a TON of information on you and share some GS lovin'. :D

I just stopped by to welcome you to the forum in my own, special way.
