terry while you're out working on your new project,would you glance at the rear wheel and see if it's a 5.5?Please.I have an 88 swing arm I'm fitting to a 90 GS,I know a 5.5 will work.If i can find a 6.0 swept or streight spoke wheel,i'm going to try it.I just don't know what the original wheel size is.I'm also looking for an axle,adjusters,spacers,brake hanger,and 520 sprocket.Thanks Terry.
PICS are GONE never TO return.

I almost had a friend go buy this the day you posted it....

A friend has most of a suz body kit for that
I think i have a weird solo tail that will fit

the rearsets are RAASK....keep them
the yosh covers are vintage race parts....all zukis had to have them for racing

heat will be your friend on the ex bolt
heat the head slowly allen wrench and a vise grip on the bolt head together

did you already strip the slot on the pilot?.....big tweaker screwdriver and LOTS of PRESSURE!!!!!!
or grind the sides off of a big screwdriver til it fits in the hole.....

built the one in the middle years ago....same front and rear sitting under gsxr 1100 body

want Iain's money to support my butt in kens shop

spc

the pilots not stripped but it's not intact either :mad: :mad:  Overall, once I get it going, it's gonna be a hell of a bike.  I'm still wondering about the logic in changing the carbs from flatsides to vacuum based :icon_confused:

I'm gonna buy a cheap ass torch when I get back from MS and get that stupid exhaust bolt

Not super worried about the pilot.......it's just aggravating :icon_rolleyes:  I'll get it, eventually.....

The carbs are freakin me out.  Holes in the slide are plugged, on each carb, one of the holes at the mouth facing the air filter is plugged............... :dunno_white:

yamahonkawazuki

easy fix scout fleabay for different carbs. oh yeah btw get on progressives ass about your gs  :mad: :laugh: the header bolt, a torch will work, and or either channel-locks or a vise grip

My Vicegrips are broken.......don't ask.  May as well buy a new pair and try it :dunno_white:

Ummm, dunno if you've noticed....but carbs ain't cheap :o  And they are already setup for the bike :dunno_white:  can't find a pilot size but it's running 132 mains.........

On the Pilot take a Screwdriver that Fits the Slot Snuggly.Stick it Firmly in the Slot and Tap the end of the Driver Firmly with a Hammer to Shock it a Bit.Heat the Carb body with a Torch and Fill the Hole with Oil Several times.Each time it Cools Shock it with the Screwdriver and Hammer.If you do strip the Slot out buy some different Size Drill bits and Keep drilling until all you have left is Threads.Pick the threads out Carefully.
If it's Not Broke Modify it.

Oh yeah you may want to Invest in a Can of Berrymans Chem Dip.It Stinks but it's the shaZam! when Cleaning Carbs. :thumb: If you find that too Expensive you can try Vinegar.Or Antifreeze in a Crock pot.

With the Berrymans you'll have to make sure you remove all of the Rubber and Plastic Parts.With Vinegar you'll have to remove all of the Steel Parts. :thumb:I haven't tried Antifreeze yet but Heard that it worked.

If that's what it comes to I'll buy new carbs first :icon_rolleyes: :laugh:

Come on Where's your Sense of Adventure. :laugh: Reallly sometimes you have to use your Imagination when Working on Vintage Bikes.Usually the Parts Aren't out there.I had a Stuck Pilot Jet in a set of VM34 Mikunis Specifically made for a 68 T500 Cobra.Using the Heat,Oil,Shock Method I saved one.The Other one had a Stuck Float Pin.I snapped off one of the Towers making that set go from worth Over $300 to More or Less Scrap Price. :mad: It took a few Years but I was Able to find another set but the Slides are Stuck. :mad: :mad:
