Very nice. I have RS flatslides on my bike and for an easy mod I have to say that the performance gain is huge.

Ebay is the devil. I have spent way more money than my bank says I have 8O due to Ebay and Dennis Kirk and other accessory suppliers. I ask that no one ever list a part I want again. That way, I can save money.

I just keep on trying to think that I don't want to mess around with fitting larger carbs on an original 26mm carb model

I would love a set - too bad they will be out of my price range. BTW, just sent the barrels out to be bored - got my 1166 kit. Wouldn't you know it though, as soon as I buy the pistons, a set is on ebay. LOL

Don't worry about it mate, they wouldn't fit an early small port head model without major surgery, and without some big cams to get all that extra fuel/air mix in and out. Then you'd have to think about a better ignition and exhaust, etc etc.

If you want a little more efficiency without any major cosmetic changes, fit a set of 28mm carbs off an early GS1000S, that way you can retain your original airbox, cables etc, and they slip straight into your intake boots. I know, I've got a set on my '79 GS750 (also fitted with 26mm carbs as standard)
