    You need a set of BS34 mikuni carbs, and if possible pick up the air box. That bike has a two piece air box , air filter system. Running pods is a possibility, but you will need a jet kit and be ready to spend alot of time getting it dialed in. You are better off with the air box IMO, some will argue.

    “Remember When in doubt use full throttle, It may not improve the situation ,but it will end the suspense ,
    If it isn't going to make it faster or safer it isn't worth doing

            Air boxes and carbs come up for them all the time on Ebay - there's loads out there. Watch out for the rubbers being hard on the air boxes (a new set will cost a bout £40) and the RH chrome side panel being rusty.

            Bank on stripping the carbs and fitting new O rings - about £20ish from a Robert Barr (a GSR member). Watch out also for split diaphragms - they're not cheap.
