    gsxr carb jet sizes?

    I've fitted '91 gsxr 750 (38mm)carbs to my '87 gsxr 1100, and having trouble with jet sizes. I bought a factory pro kit, the smallest was a 147.5, and it fouls the plugs after about 2hrs ride time.
    The engine is bored to 1127, full stainless micron system & shortened race can and K & N pod filters. Any ideas? Mundy?

    i'm not sure about factory pro kits,but dynojet recomend ideal jet for 1127 (with 36's) r 130-135 depending on where ya want the power.dont think they gave specs for 38's except for 750. they make venturi jets which give the right delivery where ya need it without sacrifising either midrange or top end,therefore not fouling plugs.i'm no expert here mate,but i visited their site coz i'm fittin up BCM twin pods shortly , have been told to leave the air box on an get a single K+N but fuck ya gotta try these things ay.pretty sure Mad had fouling probs with 150's then dropped to 135's but i'll let him confirm that for ya.my pods came with factory pro jetting guidelines that said to e-mail them direct if ya havin probs.
    anyhow heres the specsfor 1127 with 38's for factory pro and pipe.

    pilot jet #32.5
    needle #0985h-64t2
    needle clip : #2 position
    fuel level :15mm (tilt carbs,measure from gasket surface to to of float)could be the problem.
    Main jet :#152.5 (with pipe option #145 to #155)
    MJ supplied should be 152.5+155.
    fuel screws :3 turns out.set to 3% to 5% CO if using exhuast gas analyzer.
    slide holes : plug 1 hole with epoxy..option B:drill plugged hole to 1.5mm dia. could also be problem.

    if you dont already have it,i've got tuning guidelines for this set up.e-mail me if ya want me to send ya copies.

    i will also draw a picture of a Dyno and throw that in, makes life easy when tuning.

    While your at it u might wanna check the emulsion tubes and needles as they seem to get a bit of wear in em, the reason i went for factory pro kit was that the emulsion tubes came in the kit and the dyna jet kit didnt.

    i fitted my 89 1100, 36ss carbs, with k&n pods...now i have to find a jet kit! i have done a little homework with the dyno-jet stage 3 kits. Firstly the Dynojet kit part #3136 is listed for my bike on dynojet.com, but after i emailed them they directed me to serco.com.au and they have got part #3127 listed for my bike(89-90models)and part #3136 for the 91-92 models. i spoke to a dyno guy in melbourne and he said they just wear out ya slides in 4000k's... so im quite at a loss as to what to do
