Need help with 1100 ltd carbs

Pics

Here's what the pics look like when remembering the 4th click.









Good Fortune!

Not sure if you are interested or if they would fit however I have a set of 29 smoothbore if you are interested.

Send the pics to yourself by e-mail? I'm not sure if it will work with a smart phone, but....

when I do that (I use Microsoft software only) - there is an option to choose the size - I pick "small" (600 x 800 pixels) which upload easily....

Any '81 and up KZ1000 / 1100 BS34 Mikuni set will bolt onto your engine and "replace" (sort - of) what the ZN1100LTD had stock. If you can't find the exact 84 - 85 ZN1100B1/B2 LTD carbs, you will need to re-jet and tune the carbs you get to match the ZN engine specifications, which was the third most powerful of all the "J" type big KZ/ZX/ZN engines, so jetting sizes will naturally be increased - more if you are using carbs from a 1000 cc model. All GPz1100's had fuel injection as standard, so you won't find original carbs for those. The only more powerful engine that used carbs was the '84 KZ1100R, and those are very rare (unlikely you will ever see a set of carbs for sale in the U.S.A.) A Dyno-Jet kit for the ZN1100 might be a wise investment. Unless the manifolds were changed before you got the bike, what is there (part no. 16065-1131) should work just fine with most of the BS34 range. All the BS34 equipped bikes I have used these manifold numbers - 16065 - 1036, - 1131, - 1132, and - 1135. The - 1036 are the smallest, the - 1135 are the largest. They all seem to work with the BS34's , but the - 1036 are very tight fitting, while the - 1135 seem too loose. My preference is for the - 1131's, which are still available new (Z1 Enterprises). The - 1135's are the ones to use with larger performance aftermarket carbs like the Mikuni RS Flat - Slides or Keihin CR's. Supposedly they will accept even the 40 mm RS's, if you are strong enough to squeeze them in!

Oh, just another note - unconfirmed as of right now, but I was once assured that the 4 - valve head Suzuki GS1100 / GS 1150's carbs also fit the KZ1000 / 1100's. The 1150 had the largest 4 carb set of Mikuni BS3X's that I know of - they used BS36's, and might be easier to locate used than the ZN1100LTD.

Thanks so much for the info kx100 carbs are way cheaper on ebay I can get a set for 100.00 while the ltd ones people are asking 300.00 which is crazy... I'm also a little worried about the front end ... I'm not sure if you. Can tell in the pic but there is not much space between the 4in 1 and the floor and the forks are maxed out

Surely you mistyped when you said KX100...? Ebay could be the easiest place to buy used if you are willing and able to rebuild them. And no, $300 is not too far off for a price.

lol.. yes that was a mistake i was on my phone and it thought i was trying to write kx100 since i have typed that a few times. 300 might seem fare but i have seen complete bikes sell for just a bit more cash on craigs so its hard for me to drop that much cash on just carbs.. I actually missed out on 2 different kz1000 that were for only 100.00 with no title of course but complete bikes hopefully another one turns up soon

Careful on buying these BS34 Mikuni's used - try to get a set from a bike that ran PROPERLY and RECENTLY, and not a set that has sat on a shelf for whatever reason for the past 5 years - otherwise you might be buying a whole bunch of headache for that $100!

I would gladly pay $300 for a good set without major issues, compared to $100 for a set that won't get your bike out of your driveway....
