Is it possible that the inconsistency has to do with whether the bike was intended for stateside use or a Canadian ? I know cars have differences for that reason.
I have not checked mine but I will now. I'm running a Dyno-Jet one stage in mine and it was listed to be good for 1988-1994. After having issues getting it to run smoothly, I found this out:
The 1988 also had smaller carburetors (Mikuni BST34SS) than the later models (Mikuni BST36SS), a carb kit for an 89-94 GSX1100F will not work.
That may be regarding straight rebuild kits.The people who think they know everything always mess it up for those of us who do .....

I don't see how the top would matter , rather the bore diameter and such . A jet kit is just main jets (this is where the bore diameter gets REALLY important) , different needles , and a suggestion as to how the pilots should be set . Sometimes they come with a tap and nylon plugs for the slides , and maybe a different spring . It's the needles which constitute the major part of the cost . Jets are cheap .If the diameter of your plastic/metal carbs is the same as that of which the jet kit is said to be for , I'd bet it works just the same .
