81 GS650G Carburetor Compatibility (New Member)

[Guest]

Is there any chance that carbs from other gsfours would be compatible with a 81 GS650G? The pilot jet in #1 is done for good and there's no way I can get it out after a friend tried helping. I've found only 2 listings on ebay where one is a full set of carbs and the other is only #2. Already went ahead and posted in the wanted section too. Figured I'd ask because I see a lot more of carbs for the 750's and 850's. Thanks guys.

As far as compatibility goes, anything from a 550 to an 850 uses the same basic 32mm carb, but there are a few minor differences. As far as the #1 carb is concerned, I don't think the differences will matter.

Hum... are carb bodys for #1 & #3 different than #2 & #4, relative to those tees between 1&2 and 3&4....? Am not certain, but have some recollection of something like that.

And all carbs are pretty much all different prior to 80 verses 80 and after.

Check with ebay seller...he seems to be in process of tearing a 650 down.Maybe he still has carbs

Thanks guys really appreciate the help. I've had the bike for half a year now and I'm at my wit's end. Have had a lot more downs than ups with this bike, should of gotten a more road worthy bike as my first, but at least the members here are great. Will be checking in with someone to see if they can fix it and if not I'll try the #2 carb for sale.

PM me... I got a spare carb rack off a 650. I'm unlikely to ever need it as my bike has been very reliable. I'd be willing to remove and sell #1 carb. Price depends on how much you want or need of it.
It would need proper cleaning and o-rings of course.

If you don’t care how it looks I’ve got a #1 carb body. Soaked in the wrong cleaner and it turned color and got sooty. Scrapped with a wire wheel and it looks terrible. But maybe blasting would even it out? Interested contact me.
