    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...

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.

Anyone got the spec for different model from the 1000G? CV carbs so would need to be 80+

Just want to double check. I have a feeling the main jet could be bigger.... I'm just accumulating info :lol:

I checked the sticky but nobody has posted it yet. All the 1000 stuff is VM or other models... For info the 1000G posted there is canadian spec needles not California.

The 1980 GS1000E has a 107.5 stock main. Aren't you running a 115? You had a 122.5 installed and it was rich, right?
 
Have you looked through the carb 'stickies' at the top of this forum?

Posts 15, 21, 22, 23, 28, 87 all have information about the 1000.

Hmm the fiche says 107.5 for a 1980E with the same size needles as the G. G calls for a 115 main (so does the 850 & 1100G) seems to be all to do with the airbox as the 1100E is 107.5 again (tube type airbox).

The 1000E also has the different airbox with the tube type filter.....

Is this the main jet for the CV's? Looks like it to me....

Click to expand...

Yep, 122.5 was rich (was the one that ran nicely at WOT with no filter at Bruce's place)

Have posted further info on my other thread, I think we've answered this one :lol:

It seems to run better at WOT with the K&N partially taped up so it could be the 122.5 was too much but the 117.5 might bring it just right... :D

By the way, I still might bring it your way if I get time, won't be till after Feb tho, too many work trips so whilst I have it here I figure I might as well keep playing....
 
If you look back I mentioned 117.5 in an earlier thread. But I'm not a "told you so" kind of guy.;-)

That is the right jet from your link.:-D
 
:lol: I know, I remember full well.... I think I still would have needed to mess with the needles though & jammed pilot screws were no good so I haven't really lost a lot :D

I'm going to do some more testing with the tape, then depending on that I'll try the 117.5's or fit the 122.5's back in or 120's & the V&H... (I think Keith says a V&H is good for 5 up) & Kent uses a 120 in his 1100 with that setup. Decisions, decisions :D
