Well, well—it’s turned into quite the beauty!
A bit late to the party, but the GSX1100S starter valve area doesn’t have any settings—nothing at all.
There’s not even an O-ring on the cap. Well, I hunted one down and adapted it.
I’ll adapt the starter valve too. Basically, these carburettors are generic units assembled for each model. BS34s have been around forever.
Find one yourself.
It’s stepped now, so that’s how they handle it. All good, all good.
Dry-fitted to check. I was thinking I’d have to machine it on the lathe, but—hmm—it just barely works. Saved myself some effort.
The inside walls of the NJ are surprisingly dirty. If air blowing takes care of it, that’s easy enough.
The condition is good. I’ll leave it as is without replacing it. I always think about adapting it to a rubber type, but we don’t get many old vacuum-operated ones, so I’ll consider it if there’s demand.
The Katana is negative, huh? ↑ The photo shows the dimensions a bit off because I forgot to attach the stopper.
Nothing special—all done. I’ll mount it tomorrow.
