Be cheaper to buy a set of carbs from ebay. That way you've also got spare bits at your disposal.

Are you sure it came with differant slides? If its an FI international kit, it'll just have two washers - one for each carb.

Take it back to the dealer and ask for your property back.

Yep, I would go back to the dealer and be all Oi, you... give.

I've been ringing round suzuki dealers this afternoon and 2 have said it's £170 for parts plus about 1 hour labour. Obviously they might be referring to the washers not the slides but does anyone know anywhere else i could get one?

I've got a pair of carbs for sale, but Grinch asked me to hold them at the min. If he's not interested, they're here

Are the carbs with restricted slides then? Because that's what i need.

What do you think about drilling my own hole in the carb slide? Does anyone know the approx diameter?

Sorry - thought you wanted de-restricted slides, which is what mine are. My bad.

Firstly, great thread, very helpful for when I de-restrict my bike in August '09.
Secondly, any help would he gratefully accepted. Heres my possibly problem. When I bought the bike from the dealer, I had it restricted by them prior to pick-up. When fitting the suzuki restrictor would the dealer have taken out any OEM parts & should those parts been given to me? If so, will I need replacements when I take out the restrictor kit?

Many thanks, Alan
