HELP!! What's the difference or should I care?

[Newbee]

I am not sure it matters? But there are obvious differences in main jet nozzle. I am thinking the 4 valve uses the shrouded on and the 2 valve the unshrouded. The slide & needle in the shrouded doesn't go in as far as the unshrouded? I need to put my 1100L carbs back together but I can't remember which ones came out of it?

[Steve]

Yes, it matters.

Clean them up, look at the numbers engraved on the sides, compare them with what is supposed to be in the carbs and install the correct ones. Just looking at the picture, there are different numbers of holes in the jet and they are different sizes. They will definitely mix different amounts of gas, so look it up, use the correct one.

Trying to see numbers?

What is my resource for the application of these? I see numbers but I will have to get a magnifying glass to read them.

[psyguy]

try the sticky "carb spec" thread in this section

So ... get the magnifying glass. If that one doesn't work, get a better one.

I'm curious, you have 10 "old" bikes in your stable (and one 2005) & you want to know if different main jet nozzles are an issue? I would think you know carbs inside & out by now...

Who is doing the the maintenance on these bikes?

[chef1366]

The one with the shroud is for the 1100.
You asked this question in another thread and I didn't respond because you called it a main jet. That is a needle jet.

[Newbee]

OK...Cool

Needle jet..cool. I assume the shrouded needle jet will fit either the 750 4 valve or the 1100 4 valve carb with the only difference being the jet size.

I am on a crash course here for mechanic'n the Suzuki's. I am learning quick and retaining alot.

My stable includes quite a few different bikes..only because I scrounge them up for next to nothing. What keeps me going is the "resurrection" of the old classics. I am not particularly stuck on the "GS" but I am leaning that way..........

Thanks for the help...fella's and gals

If you need one I have three extra.

a bit of over-selling there, eh?

I can sell you two.

[psyguy]

I can sell you two.

two rear indicators? chrome? rectangular?

[Steve]

Yeah, and I am particularly intrigued by the "big, heavy" one in the middle.

Newbee, let me know when you have questions on that KZ13. I had a '79 that I enjoyed for a while.
