Title: Fork and carb parts/Rebuild questions
Post by: skrap1r0n on March 01, 2006, 09:50:30 AM
ok so my forks are way shot and leaking and stuff and since it hasn't run in ages, I am sure the carbs will have to be reworked. I am looking at getting the parts needed to rebuild them and I want to verify I am not missing anything here is what I have listed so far:

Forks:
Fork Oil
Oil Seal
Dust Seal
O-Ring
oil ring seal stopper

Carbs: (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Suzuki-GSX1100-91-92-GS500-E-Carb-Rebuild-Kits-NEW_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ35597QQitemZ4585247809QQrdZ1)
Will this kit work or do I need more?

that carb kit will work but it's outrageously overpriced.  Get the same thing at www.partsnmore.com for $12/ea. (you'll need two).  Partsnmore has a $35 minimum order so add some oil filters or small tools to meet that requirement.  Shipping is free and fast.
