    Rebuild carbs

    I have a gs300L and i have a few questions...im not sure where to post this general of questions but...

    Is there no gs300l owners/ haynes manual when i look for it, it only gives me a 250 and says its the same is that true?

    I need a rebuild kit for the carbs any ideas on where to get them?

    anyone want a 1982 gs300l for $1200 shines nice and runs? I live in the eastern panhandle of wv

    what kind of carbs does it have? someone here even me might have a carb rebuild section we could send ya. and the manual info you have is correct. heres a link to the original manual for service http://www.repairmanual.com/motorcyc...3/62/0/6229/62 you can bid on this one for 5.00 and most likely get it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Suzuk...sQ5fLiterature

        The 250 manual will be close enough.

        If you go to the GSR homepage you will find a link to a carb cleaning tutorial. The carbs will be slightly different from yours but you will get the idea of what needs to be done. I suggest you take the carbs off and tear them down to clean them out. You shouldn't need rebuild kits, just some O-rings if the ones in the carbs now are hard and brittle. Cycleorings.com sells kits but they are for the larger carbs, not sure how that relates to your carbs but I'm sure many of the O-rings are the same.

        Know first hand that about 50% of the people doing their first carb rebuild short cut the process and don't properly clean the carbs and have to do it again a second, or third time. One of the critical steps is to clean the pilot jets - most people don't do this properly. Read the tutorial and it will guide you.

        Good luck
