  • Carbs

    I swapped out the trans in my gsx600f the other day and unfortunately I forgot to drain the carbs and store them properly ... I'm an idiot, Anyways long story short I ended up bending a butterfly valve while trying to get them unstuck. Well (2) technically and can't find any replacements. Any ideas??? Fyi its a 93 model

    You may have to replace the entire body, remove the plate and try to flatten it back out. You will have to drill the heads off the screws to get those out.

      i got the screws out fairly easily and pulled the butterflies out. i did straighten them the best i could but they still aren't like they should be and it bugs the crap outta me. They are one of the few parts I cant even find on a diagram...

        That's because it's part of the body.

            If you have a micrometer that you can measure, I know they are 33mm carbs.

            Or are they 31 mm carbs

            They are 31mm carbs.

            Arsenic should be around, he may be able to help some.

              I figured it would be easier to just ask then go tearing them apart again in the middle of the night LoL. If no one readily knows its not a big deal I will cross that bridge on a different day when I am more eager to do something.

                1 problem is, not to many have those carbs, they are odd balls that were only used on 88-89. 90-97 is a better carb set.

                  He says he's has a 93 model. In which case he does have BST33SS carbs. 33mm. They do not sell either the butterfly, or the linkage ANYWHERE. To be more clear THOSE PARTS DO NOT EXIST.
