  • Carb fuel supply "T" nipples found

    I'm hoping this will prove to be good news for those who need Carb fuel supply "T" nipples. As many know the factory fuel supply "T" nipples are discontinued for the XS1100.
    However I just received 2 for the carb rebuild I am doing on my Katana 750SD and they appear to be the same part as is used on the XS1100 carbs.
    This Katana also uses Mikuni CV carbs and these "T" fuel supply nipples fit very nicely into the plugged hole that is on the outside of the 79F 11s carbs. That's the hole on the outside of the 11s carbs that is in-line with the holes for the fuel nipples between the carbs. I am confident these nipples are the same part and the carb spacing is very similar to that of the 79F 11.
    they are not cheap at just under 24 bucks a piece but if you need they they can be had from bike bandit.

    24 bucks a piece? They made of gold?

      Ya know...
      I just might pay $24 buck to lay my hands on some nipples...

            15 is better then 24 and i guess if you need them ... you need them and will pay for them.
