    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    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.

help!!

hi there i have an 82 gs1100ez does anyone have a fix or a idea for replacing the carbs ??
 
You're going to need to be more specific than that, I'm afraid. What's wrong exactly? Are they gummed up? Broken post? Missing altogether?
 
Mike is right on...we need more info before we can be of much help...BUT, you did come to the right place!!:-D Lots of carb gurus here. What symptoms are you looking to cure? Are the carbs in there stock configuration? What about the exhaust system? Stock/higher flow aftermarket system? Stock airbox/filter, or an oem style K&N filer, or does it have indiviual pod filters? Lots of variables, here!

If the bike has been sitting for any lentgth of time, it would probably do well to remove the whole bank and soak them after disassembly.

Bogging at low rpm's?
Surging at highway speeds while cruising/small amounts of steady throttle?
Backfire thru exhaust?
"farting" thru the carbs?

Give us some more info, and I am sure the clan can be of assistance!
 
Those stock carbs are VERY user friendly as far as rebuilding goes. If you want more power the Mikuni 33 round slide smoothbores are good as are the 36 flat slides. Also, the Keihin round slide smoothbores are good. Give us more info please! Ray.
