    The seller said they were off a 93 GSXR 1100.
    They look exactly like the GSXR1100 Carbs used from 1993-98.

          heres some parts from different forums I've posted in.

          So I founed a cheap set of 93 GSXR 1100 carbs on ebay and bought them. Apparently the 750's have slightly different spacing. and mine were to spread out (carbs 1+4) to fit my head carb boots. SOOOO I took them apart from each other and modded the nut side of the butterfly shaft on carbs 2+3 to allow 1+4 to move closer in. I also had to belt sand down the fuel and air nipples on carbs 4+2. To allow the back side(air inlet side) of the carbs to move in closer. All of this brought carbs 1+4 about 1/4 inch in and now they fit with a little encouragement. Well, when I was putting the nut back on the butterfly shaft of carb 2 (which has had the lock washer removed to allow for space) I tightend it down to much putting pressure against the butterfly(actually pushing it against the carb throat) and it bent. Figured at the time it would be an easy part to replace so it got kind of beat up when trying to pull it back through the butterfly shaft. And that my friend is why I am looking for one. TADA that wasn't as long as I thought it was going to be

            Still have to connect the vacuum advance, throttle cable, and choke lever(which is going to have to be modified). But they fit and the throttle plates operate smoothly. I bent one of the throttle plates(explained in the above post). Gonna have to replace it or try to fix the one I have. Figured they would be easy to buy seperate but they are not.
            Some clown on another forum said he found one and it would be 48.00 shipped!!!! Please I might beable to get a set of carbs for that price. Any way I'll get some pics this weekend and postem up Monday mornin.
            Any questions till then feel free>>

              Well I painted on some pics to show where I made mods, and here they are. Lines aren't exact locations just trying to give you an idea. I also had to drill new holes in the connecting rails for carbs 1+4. 2+3 are close enough to the xs placement to fit.
