you took the words out my mouth thank you Kanuck Kornner

Yup... Me too.... However I've also got a 75 and an 81 on the go as well. But my 75 Is getting my attention at the moment

Pretty sure as long as you don’t do anything with the jets or needles you don’t have to resync the carbs.

You definitely need to resync the carbs every time you take them off the bike. They are never still synced once you put them back on.

Canadian tire

I got them from my local dealer . If your down in the states try hondapartshouse.com

Hi Larry they are just a generic kit I bought off of Amazon that have the sizes that a specified in the video. Glad you enjoyed watching ! Cheers

Actually you can get a complete set of Screws for the entire carb set, from 3 mm to 6 mm and replace every screw in your carb. I have a list somewhere, where did I put that list.......................

I would also buy the randakks full carb kit, the Honda stuff is great but for the same price as those four gasket sets the randakks kit comes with many more parts you will need and an instruction booklet.

I did that previously so did not include it in the video . But yes should always clean the jets out. The randakk kit is great but is more expensive than the honda kit in Canada.

Hi sebastian glad you found the video helpful. The cylmers manual has the idle screws set at 1.5 turns out from base. There are 4 located on the bottom of the carburetors. Ensure they are cleaned well as built up gas residue will give you a false position. Turn the screw all the way in till LITELLY SEATED. Then turn them out 1.5 turns ( 3 half turns of the screw) all pilot screws should be adjusted to the same position. If one cylinder is running richer or learner there is another issue and adjusting this screw won't solve the problem. All four are equal setting. Hope this helps ! Ride safe !

@@kanuckkorner8477 You are THE BEST!! Thank you sooo much!!

It could be that the float level is off. Check up higher on the carb where it mounts to the plenum might be the fuel seals leaking there and coming down the carb lookin like it's leaking from the butterfly shaft. Did you use oem seals or aftermarket ?

@@kanuckkorner8477 I used Randakks master seal kit, I just took the carbs back off checked all the float levels and float seat everything looks good , bench tested the carbs and no leaks now , maybe I flooded it trying to start it, the bike hasn’t been started for about 15 years, I guess I’ll try it one more time, I’m getting good at pulling theses carbs off and on

That's a good rebuild kit. Might have just got the float caught on something the first time .start your pilot screws at 1.5 turns out to start shouldn't need to move it much in either direction to tune . Best of luck!

The air cut off valves and the accelerator pump should be replaced if there really old. As for the gas tank I'm not to sure with that I believe the petcocks have filters I've seen people use a rust inhibitor and sealer but might be easier to check ebay for a tank if the price is right. Best of luck !

Yes

Make sure your float needles are good aswell as the float height before tuning very important. Most people say 2 or 2.5 turns out on the pilot screw but just start the bike and let it get to temp and turn them out equally till you achieve the highest idle. You'll hear when the bike is running really well . Adjust the rims back to around 1000. Then start your sync cylinders 1 and 3 or the right side ( sitting on the bike ) need to read the same on the gauges. Then adjust cylinders 2 to read the same as cylinder 4 then adjust 4 to read the same as three and the rest of them . Snap the throttle a couple times throughout the process so the butterfly valves will seat where they want. Best of luck!

No sorry, the camera lense is flipped so it may look backwards. They are all right threaded throughout the bike.

The carbs are kind of simular but the are not the same.

I heard it’s possible to put an 1100 carb on a 1000. D’you know if there’s any benefit?

Hi Ryan, I don't work on other motorcycles unfortunately, if you have the clymers manual or watch my other carb video it might be helpful in rebuilding them yourself. Sorry and best of luck in your projects

@@kanuckkorner8477 That to bad! You really know what you are doing. Thank you so much for the video! Keep up the good work! Ryan

Hi Todd, unfortunately I dont do that kind of work. I would recommend getting a rebuild kit either from the dealership or fortnine that supplies a k&L brand which is a decent aftermarket but dealership is best bet. Here is also a link on common issues and things to look out for when rebuilding. Hope this helps! Best of luck and keep me posted if you have any questions www.randakksblog.com/top-honda-gl1000-carb-rebuilding-mistakes/

@@kanuckkorner8477 thank you so much for your reply. Keep up the videos!

Hi Sebastian , Thank you for watching the video. I'm glad you found it informative. Unfortunately I don't offer my services to rebuild at this time. I do however have another detailed video on setting float height and changing the needles in these carbs on my channel you might find helpful if you decide to rebuild yourself. Best of luck ! And thanks again ,

@@kanuckkorner8477 you should put a donation link. I’ll be the first to put some money in because by teaching people how to do this you are saving us hundreds if not thousand of dollars!

Hi Richard, it would be beneficial to vaccum sync the carbs after adjusting them or adjusting the valve clearance,

Slow jet is a 35 Main is 145

@@kanuckkorner8477 THANK YOU FRIEND!

The gl1000s are a little different but very simular. The jets will be pressed in so don't try to pull them out.

Hi Neil , this is the honda part number 16075-463-004 . If the dealership is unable to get it try Randakk cycle shakk they make replacement ones for these carburetors. Hope this helps!

I prefer this stock. These engines were built to last as long as they are maintained properly

Hi, sorry unfortunately I do not fo this kind of work I would suggest getting rebuild kits from either honda or fortnine has a k&l brand rebuild depending on how old the carbs are too it would be a good idea to check or replace your air cut off valves and the accelerator pump. A rough cost for a full rebuild on theses carbs would be about 450-500 for all new seals and gaskets if you rebuild yourself. Here is a link that will help you go through the carbs aswell as using my video for reference. Make sure all the ports all well cleaned and soak all the brass in carb cleaner. Best of luck! www.randakksblog.com/gl1100-carb-details/
