It won't run right. You have a 1980 or newer 1100E with CV (constant velocity) carbs. The way these work is that the more air flow you have, the more the slide raises the needle and effectively increasing the air volume simultainiously. Basically, the carb(s) that have holes in the diaphragm(s) won't be spitting the correct amount of fuel to the engine.Currently bikeless

And I'm curious has anyone ever tried to patch a crack or hole in one of the diaphrams? Silicone sealer/adhesive like Goop? Don't need to do it was just wondering. Last time I had to buy diaphrams/slides was for my XS2 Yamaha $22 for the PAIR so that let's you know how long ago it was!

I tore the diaphrams on my 98 GSX limited SeaDoo RAVE system. I used a little monkey super glue (tube patch kit) on the crack until the new one came in. Should work the same on the carbs too, wont last forever but it should get you down the road or across the lake in my case.1166cc 1/8 ET 6.09@111.88

If you're deliberately opening the throttle faster than what's normal, the problem may be just that. If normal operation of the throttle gives good results...And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

not fast like, crazy fast, but like if i role on the throttle to get to around 3 or so fast, then it bogs.

If the bike won't accept throttle above idle either blipping it or trying to pull away, then your problem could be bad diaphragm(s). Look to see if they're installed right and check their condition.And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!

Carbs
A buddy of mine knows a company in U.K that will replace the Diaphragm with a new one for 28 pounds ($50) but I waited it out on EBAY>
