I just bought an '82 gs1100l all stock, sitting at 24k. This video is a goldmine of information!

@@jonsmotorcyclerescueandrev3538 Just took my first ride with the new Delkevic Exhaust! The video does no justice for how amazing this motorcycle sounds. Thank you so much for your videos. Huge help and inspiration!! Super happy with it.

Awesome, I'm truly glad to be of some help! I am in the middle of replacing the clutch on mine. I got half way through the job and realized I needed to order more parts. Just picked them up today so I'm looking forward to getting her back together and back on the road. I'll post a video of the clutch replacement soon. Ride on!

@@jonsmotorcyclerescueandrev3538 my clutch is fine other than 1-2 can be clunky but I’m sure that’s how it usually goes… I am riding while restoring so may wait for winter to do that.

[@jonsmotorcyclerescueandrev3538]

Understood. I usually go through several rounds of restoration and riding with each bike. It helps me be patient when I can enjoy the bike between projects.

What a great idea for a channel. I rode one of those and it was like ridding a lounge chair, supremely comfortable. Great Video and the bike sounds great. Shaft drive how appealing. Take care and greetings from South Australia.

Curious what jets you used in the carbs? And did you adjust the fuel screws? How many turns out?

[@jonsmotorcyclerescueandrev3538]

If I remember correctly, 42.5 idle jets, 117.5 main jets, 175 air jets, and 2.5 turns out on the air/fuel screws.

[@andrewnewman6510]

And that’s with stock air box?

[@jonsmotorcyclerescueandrev3538]

Yes, stock air box and filter.

[@andrewnewman6510]

Thank you, that’s good to know, mine is all over the place . 47.5 idle jet, 142.5 main, 145 air jet and 3.5 turns out. It gets better as I turn the fuel/air screw out more but now it has a hard time coming back to idle. I have a major hesitation from idle. Can’t figure it out. 82 Gs 1100e Delkivic 4 into 1 K&N pods….

You can at least look up your stock jetting sizes on partzilla.com That will give you a good starting point. Carburetion can be a challenge - especially if somebody was in there before you!
