Stock Pilots '85 GS 700

[hankwitzr]

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and have a question. Just picked up an 85 GS 700. Was wondering what the stock jetting for the bike is since I don't have the manual. I'm looking for sizes for the main jets and pilots.

Well, if you will post up a self intro in GS Owners, you'll receive the patented "mega-welcome" which includes factory manuals.

Or, you could see the sticky at the top of this page "OEM carb specs"

Or, you could use Search

Or,some who knows will post here eventually

Hi,

A Dynojet Stage 3 kit.

Or you can experiment, buy one size up on the pilot fuel jets, buy sets of 4 to 6 sizes up for the main jets, shim the needles, perform plug chops and read the plugs to be sure you're not running lean.

More info collected on my little website:
For CV Carb jetting, see the very informative article at Factory Pro. Also see the carb jetting tips at Motorcyclecarbs.com, Inc.
