    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...

    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.

anyone upgrade the air box? what size jet did you install? the stock jet 110..

let me know
 
It is generally accepted that CV carbs need a jet kit, such as a DynoJet kit, when installing pods. The needles need a different curve, need to be adjustable, the diaphram needs to be drilled, and a few other changes that are done when pods are installed.

I think you mean the slides, you would not want to drill holes in the rubber diaphrams.

My bad. :o
You are correct; one of the drill bits that comes in the kits is for the slides. The other drill bit is for the air jet correctors.
 
K & N pods and stock exhaust on a GS650...

120 main jets if you run below 5,000' and 117.5's if you run higher.
Adjust the fuel screws to fine tune. Done.

You have already adjusted the valves, cleaned the carbs and re-sealed the intake manifolds... right?

That is NORMAL MAINTENANCE. Yes, you need to adjust the valves every 4000 miles, according to Suzuki.

"Re-sealing the intake manifold" is actually just replacing the o-rings between the intake boots and the manifold. Chances are that the original o-rings are still in there, so new ones are probably in order. They only need to be changed every 20 or 30 years, so it's not an expensive proposition.

If you have not yet rebuilt the carbs, they probably need their o-rings changed, too, so just get them all from cycleorings.com. A complete set of o-rings for the carbs and intake boots, along with new screws to hold the boots in (the original screws are basically crap) will set you back less than $25.
