    Can you identify a carb (anyone know a carb rebuilder?)!!!!!

    I have a 1982 gs750 tz almost finished and ready to go. I am plannning on having the carbs rebuilt by someone (good I hope) but most websites ask for the type of carb and I don't really know what it is???? Like is it a cv type something or a vm33 or a vm29 blah blah blah? This is essentially chinese to me. If someone could lend a hand in identifying I would be eternally greatful. Also if anyone on here is a rebuilder or can suggest one I would be just as grateful.

          Not sure what you mean by having your carbs "rebuilt"--replace worn parts? clean them?--but motorcyclecarbs.com does terrific work, and can remove your frozen pilot jets. After I had my valves adjusted and these carbs synched, the bike runs beautifully from idle to redline.

            There are a "few" rebuilders out there - but most will charge you "an arm and a leg" to rebuild. If your mechanically inclined, you can tackle this job yourself. If you look at the GS Garage section on the website - there is a complete teardown and rebuild section covering those carbs ... 8)

              I'm not a professional but I've gone through these carbs enough. I can replace most internal components that come in a carb kit and clean them up nice. I can help out if needed.

              Paul...something...Suzuki in PA I believe, can do carb rebuild/resets to original spec. However all bikes are different and may require some tuning after a carb rebuild. Syncing the carbs is also a must.
