If you get a carb rack with the white tops .. .I think you're stuck with that type ... dont believe the 89-00 will fit.
Cool.

Any idea if the carbs off an old Katana use the same top cap??  (don't have them in front of me at the moment)  I'm loking at you Buddha...

Me thinx that 01' carb caps will fit, but they are plastic, without the valve.

But i haven't attempted it, so not 100% on that. 
They just look like the exact same carb, different cap.

89-00 GS carbs and pre 96kat 6 and 7 carbs are near identical.Past the 96 I dunno what will swap in for what GS, of course 01-02 is one animal and 04+ is another in the GS world. Kat world - no idea.Cool.

Went ahead and ordered the nonUSA/non white valve top caps for the 2006 carbs.  ALMOST everything else looks exactly the same.  I'll let y'all know if it works!

Would you mind sharing where you ordered them from and how much they charged?  This is to get rid of the vacuum line spaghetti on top of the carbs right? thanks!
