    Carb Question

    Hey guys,

    Sorry if it's a repeat, but I browsed and couldn't find a previous post. What's the carb type on the '81 gs1000. Got an '82 750 with a carb that needs replacing and I'm wondering if I can use one from the gs1000.

    Thanks!

    The 750's used a BS32SS while the 81 GS1000 used a BS34SS. Not directly interchangeable. Can you use them? Possible, but it will take some modifications and some creative jetting to get them to work correctly. I'd sell the 1000 carbs and pick up a good set of 750 carbs if it were me.

    1980 GS1000GT (Daily rider with a 1983 1100G engine)
    1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
    1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.
