Might be an idea ? Post which carb has the broken post ! I think there might be a few on here that have a stash of carbs and parts ? ? ?

You are right Done. I probably have 15 or more carb bodies laying around here. So should many other members. Depending on which carb year and position a person needed, it may be easier and cheaper to replace the buggered carb.

Jeff, these are the carbs that I have. the arm to pull out the choke is broken and the detente balls are missing (the ones that hold the choke in position). The only reason that I did not use these is i could not get them to stop leaking...but I had other sets of carbs so I didn't try very hard.




A cheaper rout would be to get the carb body that you need and swap it in. If this is the direction you want to go send me a pm we can work out what you need.

See if I can get a 2

I just dropped 20 sending my carbs to Schmitt in Pa so gonna try to find just a single #2 from an 80 SG and see if I can have it mailed to him

Well those being the later carbs puts me out of donating a #2. All of my spare carb bodies are older style. I have three full sets of the newer ones that are as yet untested and one set that are off a suzuki but is basically (but not exactly), the same body. If someone knew for sure they would work I would break them down as #3 of the air/idle screws is stripped and I am not sure if it will come out.
I counted them and I have 24 carb bodies sitting around here. Some of them have a stuck jet or a broken off idle screw, but I have given up on only one of them.
Patience, perseverance and a jar of Vaseline and you can screw a Grizzly bear, if you really want to!
Good luck, and I hope another member can help you out. Even if I could help out it would be 10-14 days in the mail unless sent by UPS and to us Canadians that means You Pri*cks Suck as they rape us daily.

Rasputin, All I know is using the Suzuki part no. for the tiny washer/o-ring under the mixture screws is ONLY way of replacing them,OEM. N/A from MotherYammy for yrs. now. They ARE BS34 II's like the later 81/XJ carbs though, with enricher control like the XJ's.

Please

Number 2 carb for a 1980 xs1100 SG

The Suzuki carbs are the same model Mikuni's that you are after. They were used in a different application but the actual bodies may be the same. I thought I would throw it out there in case someone knew for sure, as I could then send you a correct #2 body. I do not know for sure, but if someone does you get a carb body for shipping.... Not a bad deal.

I think that would be easier than trying to fix the broken post
