The GS1000 is still here. It runs on 3 out of 4 and I'm going to
work on that in the next week or two. I sold the old KZ last week,

Hey Graham, did you ever do anything with that GS1000 or that old KZ?

Good read, I'm thinking the problem may be outside the carbs, Graham

Hmmm, since ether is more explosive that gas it can help to start

Since it
starts when warm then it can't be too rich, if it was too rich it
would be
hard starting when hot. How does the "choke" work on that bike is
it in the
carbs or in the airbox or intakes? I'd make a point to double
check its
operation.

I haven't tried that Allen, it's a little hard to do it. What
intrigues me is that I can wind away on the starter motor and it's
trying to start, give it choke and there's no response at all, then
just the smallest shot of starting fluid in both air duct openings
(there is one either side of the bike behind the side covers) and
the
bike starts, still without any choke and it doesn't need it at all.
I have owned a lot of these 454's and this is not the norm. I'll
attach a pic of the bike, Graham
