        Floats are metal. Can't be a Radian's.

          Here's a pic of Suzuki GS carbs (left) and XS carbs (right) compared side by side.

            I noticed

            that the main jets and the pilot jets are missing in the pictures. Unless they have them the carbs are a bit more incomplete from what is in the listing.

                Carbs

                So if i used other carb's change the jetting to 110 and rack and spacing from my old carb's would this work?

                  Hey Shor

                  What model / year xs1100 do you have? I have never tried what you are asking about. The carbs look close and if I were trying to do this I would be looking at all of the jets from both sets of carbs. There may be other differences that would need to be addressed. You stated 110 jets so I am assuming later bike/carbs on your xs1100. If you keep looking out on Ebay you will run across a good deal on original carbs or parts and would not have to worry about problems with incompatibilities between non XS1100 carbs. I will say the GS carbs look like they would work though.
