Default 81 gs1100 wheelies

Is it even possible? I have an 81 gs1100E with mikuni carbs and an after market 4-1 yorishima pipe. I have carb probs since I bought it, so I am wondering...lol. I am a corner marshal at Calgary's Race City Motorcycle Roadcourse and hope to afford my dream yamy r6 race bike for next year if my knee heals. But...lol I got the itch...so I took my old gs out today (using a stick to shift as my leg is in a splint!) and was thinkin!!! I could pull off some of the other races (When I get the splint off in a week) and place low to learn the track! Anybody with anyadvice on the old gs garb rebuild let me know. (jet suggestions ex....)

My guess is that you are kidding with this question. The 16 valve GS1100E wheelies very easy. If your bike is not able to lift the front wheel there are some major problems with it somewhere.
