Bs36 1135 jetting w/cheap pods ??
Hi GS friends,
Thanks for a great forum and greetings from Norway to all the helpful members here!
I have been in and out of this forum a couple of times due to my low activity in winter-season, re-register every springtime is a must when interest for my old Suzuki returns.
I have a 1980 GS with a 1984 1135cm3 and Mikuni BS36 00A00 carburetor, 4 into 2 standard exhaust pipes.
Now I have removed the stock air box (stupid guy you might say) and put on some cheap pods.
Well, since I only drive in nice weather and the air box was in bad shape I decided to learn more about jetting, and I am sure I will. I intend to restore the air box and put it back if I have to, but right now I will try to make the bike run with the pods. I think the carburetors are with original settings, time will show if PO syndrome pops up.
00A00 426 is marked seen from top on left side of bowls so I expect to find similar to what this excellent listing shows in the fifth line from bottom. I don’t know what 426 means. Serial no?

With the pods and no air box the motor idle nice, but from ¼ throttle and up it do not follow and falls down. E.g. if i go to 3000rpm and keep this throttle pos, the rpm will start to decrease.
It seems to run to lean and would like to have some guidance by first selecting larger main jets (now 120).
Unsure, but if I have to I will also a try to find new pilot air jets (now 125), recommendations please?
Clip position is 2nd groove from the top according to Haynes. Guess I have to reposition this down to rich up the circuit or?
The Needle jet X-5 and Jet needle 5D59-2 controls from about ¼ and up to ¾ and might need change?
Many questions from a newbie.. Guess some will say I should buy a DJ or similar, if so what set will fit? Others will say put back the stock air box and go riding! Yes, maybe I will in the end.
Right now I am reading this interesting page
