My 33's work real nice on my mildly built 1100e. The only thing I would say. After sitting at a red light at idle I sometimes will have to blip the throttle before letting out the clutch so it don't stall. But I think it's more of the clutch grabbing than carboration.My Motorcycles:
22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)
82 1100e Drag Bike (needs race engine)
81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
79 1000e (all original)
82 850g (all original)
80 KZ 650F (needs restored)

I will check into the stage 3 kit. When I worked in a dealership, the kits were always rich,but it was on newer(late 80's) bikes with slip ons. Funny you mention a big bore kit. I traded some stuff 25 years ago to get a spare 1100 motor.When searching for clean carbs, I checked my spare motor,that came from a drag racer. It had 160 mains in it.All the others had 102. I hope there is a surprise "under the hood" when I check the top end. All this info is very informative for me. My stuff has sat through 30 years of divorces, moving, Kids ect. Thanks again,this site is a lot more friendly than the ZRX site.Current Rides: 82 GS1100E, 00 Triumph 955 Speed Triple:twistedevil:, 03 Kawasaki ZRX1200, 01 Honda GL1800, '15 Kawasaki 1000 Versys
