    Guys i'm in a world of hurt i need some help with my GS 425

    Ok normally i would not bother you guys for this but i'm stuck. I have used this website before to customize my GS 1100e into one of Katmans bikes. Works and runs fantastic btw looks crazy sexy. But I bought my fiancee a 79 GS425e when i was parting out bikes for a living awhile back, and i couldn't part it out as much as i need to for money i couldn't bring myself to do it. Pretty much everything on the bike is cherry except a dent in the tank and faded paint.
    So heres the problem I NEED DIAPHRAGMS BADLY!! I have looked all over this web site and very few people have these bikes or know much about them. I can't find a deffinit answer asto what carbs they are for sure. I read somewere that the carbs are the same as the xs650. Well i bought a pair of diaphragms for those and there not the same not even close. I have seen some Europian places that might have them but then i wonder what will get lost in translation between bike names and if there really the same. So PLEASE Help a brother out!! My fiancee is already lookin up motorcycle classes and my buddy wants to borow it to take his endorsement test. Any info would be fantastic, thanks in advance guys you all have helped me and my fellow zuki riders with infoso many times.

    They should be Mikuni BS34's. Why not post an ad in the Wanted to Buy forum? The 1000/1100 bikes have the same carbs so the slides should work in yours.

    To measure is to know.

      Take some pics of the carbs and show them to the masses. Someone will know what they are and may have the diaphrams in a box somewhere.

        I've got a couple spare diaphragms from GS450 carburetors (Mikuni BS34). If they are a match for what you need, I can help you out. Send me a private message if you're interested.

          Oops. Nevermind. I just looked at the fiche for your bike and the diaphragm for the 425 is different from the 450. Good luck with the "parts wanted" section or eBay... you'll find it soon enough.
