Hey all, I've recently given my stock G13BA and carby a ground up rebuild and I still feel like I want a little bit more power out of it. I really like the idea of the quad Carby setups I've seen on here and I've done a few searches and I reckon I'm gonna give it a shot, I'm gathering that the gsxr/katana 600 carbies are the go, but I've also heard of the 750s being done.
Can anyone give me any more info on running the carbies off a 1988 GSXR 750? I've found some locally for $150 and am considering buying them.

Cheers, Brooksy!

If you can build a manifold then any rack of CV type 26-36mm ish carb will work quite well. What breed of carbs are the GSXR750's?

Those will work but be prepared to have a play with the jetting/needles etc. The BST36ss is still a CV carb with flat slides. They should be quite easy to get and find jets/parts for

Awesome, thanks for that! I think I might just get it all installed and then give it to the bloke that rebuilt the stock Carby, I don't think I'm game enough to fuck around with all that haha how much worse do you think the fuel consumption would be? I can't seem to find any figures anywhere

Where abouts are you? Realistically, those carbs if tuned correctly should give on par or better fuel economy then the stocker if driven sedately.
