Stock pipe and Lunchbox sometimes is not very tunable. People have problems with almost every setup.
Put a pipe on even slip on and its easy to get tuned. Run 150/40/1/3. Else, well lots of advil and patience and what not.
Cool.

Uh oh, too late, I have already ordered the lunchbox filter!

Do you have the 150 main jets for sale, O wise one? Or should I head for Sudco?

Job done - finally !

Fitted Buddha's jet kit, it was nice and easy, and slipped on the K&N lunchbox after a couple of tries.

The test run started OK and sounded good, then it died when hot. Attempted restarts caused monster backfires like a shotgun - luckily, we are out in the country and nobody called the cops. After enough attempts, I flattened the battery. Bugger.

Recharged the battery overnight and tried again, then I had weak sparks coming from the plug bodies and not the electrodes. Hmm, I had a DPR8EA-9 in one side and DR8ES-L in the other. Not good. A matched pair of DPR8EA-9's from the car parts store, for $1.98 each instead of $3.50 each from the Suzuki dealer, did the job tonight. It fired up first time, with clouds of smoke as the correctly firing plugs burned off the accumulated gas and oil from the cylinders for about 5 minutes. A test ride up and down the drive, and she was running sweetly with barely a flat spot anywhere.    :)   :cheers:

Aah ... the jet kit used as a diagnostic tool ... OK that's a first (not quite ... but close enough).
Cool.

Tried to send you a PM but maybe your inbox was full

I have a 2006 GS500F, and live at just about sea level in SOCAL.
I am planning on installing the standard Lunchbox and Pipes. To be perfectly honest, I commute everyday on my bike so, MPG is important to me, but so is having fun in the canyons, etc.
Chances are I will get either the V&H or the Jardine and I want to have the jets on hand.
Would you mind sending the standard sizes for this combination.

If you were in SOCAL, I would just pull the carbs off and send them to you for the install but, as I mentioned, I commute with the bike which means that any more than a weekend of downtime is going to be an inconvenience.

Let me know how you want to do the money, etc.

The Buddha

My inbox? - full ??? - never ... never ever ... I only have 2803 messages in it. What is the limit on it BTW, 2800 ... Oh crap.
I am causing 90% of the load on the database ... Double crap ...
Anyway, you are looking for a jet pack ? OK I'll PM you.
Cool.
Buddha.

Buddha, man am I glad to find you.  Ok here is the story.  I bought a 92-93 gs500e been sitting since 03 and in multiple parts.  I cleaned the carbs straight off the bat due to some reason now one knows how to drain bowls when letting a bike sit.  After cleaning to best of my shade tree ability I put the carbs back on got it to fire up.  You have to open the throttle all the way up. It stumbles all over it self and wont rev up at all.  I figure the carbs are shot and need your touch.  I live in VA and was wondering if you have the time??  The bike has stock intake box and a Vance and Hines super sport exhaust on it.  I own a gixxer 600 which I love to ride but GS500 is the first bike I ever rode and when I saw this one I couldnt pass it up.  Also I have done compression check on both cylinders and everything seems good.

The Buddha

Warning - Lunch box (no air box) and V&H = 150/40 - Kit available, send $22 paypal and an address and note in it. I'll have it out in the next 1-2 days.
Souljero - Watch your PM's but yes 01+ kits now in stock. 20/65/147.5 - This is not a setup I ahve tested yet. I may in the next few months, but I am copying off people in this site.
Ranger_kill - Send me carbs not a problem. Some crap is clogged up, but a rejet and ring check/change can solve most of any problems.

Very sorry for the late replies to this thread. After I merged the threads I sorta got confused and never checked it. PM me as you wish though.
Cool.
Buddha.
