    carb identification

    I'm running a set of 29mm VM carbs with one large nut for draining the fuel from the float bowl, instead of the more common brass screw and a separate drain tube. Also it has 33.4mm slides. The bike is far from standard, motor is GS1000L 1979 but was chopped in 1981 so somewhere between it leaving the factory and 81 it gained these carbs.
    Can anyone tell me what they're off please? here's the bike, will post piccies of the carbs over the weekend, it's way past my bed time!

      many of those VM 29s came off of the Kawasaki KZ 1000s..however they really add the pep to the suzukis..good working carbs are in the range of 350 to 450 i would say..rebuildable ones can easily fetch 200 or so. You got some good carbs there for sure.

      NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.


      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
