Old Skool Carb Problems. The 1980's Suzuki GSX 750 rebuild project carbs and exhaust fighting back

[@flamintasty]

Every time you say, “an old Suzuki”, God kills a kitten. It reminds me of Bono being onstage doing a slow clap, and saying, “Every time I clap, a child in Africa dies!” Someone shouted out, “Well stop f*cking clapping then!” An absolutely useless bit of trivia for you 😂

You Dave & Rob are absolute funny blokes doing this rebuild of such a classic bike! This will remain a classic video for the ages. Great stuff 👍

[@mattmid7012]

I've filled all the holes in my innuendo bingo card in one video. I think once the bike's done Rob should ride it off into the distance!

Rob does love it!

Great video Dave and thanks for my hat fits a treat

[@obsession_engineering]

Thanks for joining the mob!

THANK YOU. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

You have discovered how K+N grew so big in the 80's, lots of people just gave up and fitted pods.

Similar problems on my GSXR1100G, now I’ve got it all back together and looking nice it won’t start and the choke lever won’t stay engaged…? Want to cry 😢 I used ratchet straps to engage the rubber manifolds properly. The GSX is already looking really nice. 😊

really crap trying to get these old airboxes to fit nicely on the carbs, what I've seen on the owners groups is people jigging up the airbox on the bench , and using bungees and ratchet straps and heat, they pull back open the centre of the airbox so that it fits much nicer, this may be worth a try.

All old bikes seem to be similar to work on, Suzuki and Kawasaki aren't that bad.....generally. You wait until current bikes get to over 40 years old 😮

Get that pipe off! Old air-cooled bikes had Harris, Lazer or Alfa pipes and the louder the better.😂

Evening Dave and Rob….looking good so far…👍🇮🇲😉 ps could you not have put a mini hex socket on the tap with an extension and a T bar..? PPs T-Shirt ordered…felt left out now the wife’s got the bobble hat…I don’t do hats…👍🇮🇲🤣😜

[@obsession_engineering]

That wouldn't have been a bad idea. 🤔

Aren't those footrest brackets alloy? Good luck with the float levels with those pattern float needles Rob, been there, bought OEM.

[@robertpaton1740]

Footrest hangers were chrome on the 750s and alloy on 1100s.

[@bananabrooks3836]

@robertpaton1740 Ah, thanks, good parts commonality Suzuki (and no wonder why the 1980 Z750E was considerably lighter). l suppose the flagship 1100 should have the best.
