Cobalt95,

According to the Suzuki manual the carb is a Mikuni BS40SS 24C4.
Main jet 145, pilot jet 52.5, and the pilot jet 1 and 1/8 turns out.
It will if it is standard have a plastic washer on top of the needle .110" thick.

Hope this helps. I have the manual handy if you need any more specs.

If you really want that, best way is to look thru fleabay for possibles.
some v twins have dual carbs that 1 or the other will have a 90ish bend.

I don't think this ones big enough since it's a 800

I've not seen an angled carb mount produced anywhere for this bike.
I am working on one that will be made of aluminum and have a 45 degree angle. There should be a prototype shortly.

Dave , While the 90 isn't exactly a performance thing , but a greater distance between slide & valve gives mixture more time to atomize,speed up & straighten out !
