BS36ss from Suzuki Tempter 650 will they work?

[Joey Cottontail]

Got these laying around and would like to try them on custom XS650 project. Anybody using or tried before? They fit in the intake manifolds perfect. I know I would need to rejet but is anything else different that makes it a fool’s errand?

If they are linked, the C-C distance May be a little bit off. The XS has 120 mm C-C, not sure what the Suz may have, but shouldn't be that much different. Since the GR/ Tempter is very similar to the XS, I wouldn't be afraid to Try them as is.

If the spacing is different you might compare the ODs of the throttle shafts. If they're the same, install the Zook throttle plates in the Yamaha shafts. If the Zook carbs conform to usual Mikuni design practices, brackets will interchange; easy enough to fabricate if they don't.

Why are the butterflies out? Use new throttle shaft seals to reassemble.
Yes centers would be a biggie, the Kawi ninja carbs are a popular alternative with lots of jetting recomendations available.
