Katana in Baja Sur, Mexico

[Loreto]

Greetings:

I have a friend in Baja Sur, Mexico who owns a 1991 Suzuki GSX750 FM Katana. He's trying to restore this bike but needs a complete carburetor. He has been told that he must have the EXACT carburetor for that year and model. I was recently told that ANY carburetor for the GSX750 will work except that he may have to fiddle with the carb boot and find a set that will fit. When I find the carburetor, I will need to ship it to Mexico. So, I need to know that what I buy will fit when it gets there and also that I have the correct carb boot set so it will all go together. I don't own a bike and know very little. I can sure use any help I can get. Thanks a bunch. Loreto

Contact Arsenic on this website. Any 89-97 750 carb set will work for that bike. Engine CC size does have to match, specific year does not as they are the same for all 89-97.


If Arsenic does not have, or will not have a set soon , then I have a set that I can rebuild and arrange shipment.

Thanks for the info. I'm totally new to the forum scene. Can you tell me what I need to do to contact Arsenic? And I don't want to lose contact with you. Thanks.

PM him to send a message directly to him. Your posting here is in the intro section and honestly may not be one he would normally read, I don't know if he checks these.

I tried to send a PM to him, but it was rejected as I don't have enough posts. What else can I do? Thanks for your help.

Good Morning:


I received a message from Arsenic that he does not have a set that will fit the 1991 GSX750 FM Katana. Please advise your cost and shipping for the set you said you could restore. What time frame are we looking at? Thanks.

Responded with a quote for shipping to you in the US.

Purely for reference: If you need to get Arsenic's attention just put up a posting called something like "K&N filters rock"... he'll jump right on in there !

Only joking Chris, be gentle
