    Did I read somewhere in here that the XS carbs use the same jets as a certain VW carb? I tried searching the list but found nothing. Did I dream that up?

          I found the comment about VW jets working in the XS:

          12/5/00 Maans "Smitty" Smit
          XS main jets are exactly the same as that for a 1600 Beetle Solex carb (old Beetles, dunno bout the new ones). Over here (South Africa) Yamaha charged me R33 /$4,25 each while the general carb shop down the road charges me R8,50 /$1,10 each for the Beetle main jets. Go figure.

          Anyone tried these?
