WHo's got them? I need to do some swapping of things on my carbs.. make them more XS-like. I need some 130 mains, 42.5 pilots and a 180 main air jet.
My local shop wanted @ 5$ a jet... x12.

I think 81xsproject is right. It says "Mikuni Type Jets" on the MikesXS site.Originally posted by 81xsproject View PostTim Ripley - Gaithersburg, MD

To be fair, though, I have used plenty of jets from Mikes with no problems. Whatever brand they use seems to be right on.'81 XS1100 SH

needles and tubes
Does anyone know a source to get genuine Mikuni needles (5GZ6) and emulsion tubes (X-2) for the early type 79 Standard carbs without paying a fortune?2H7 (79) owned since '89
3H3 owned since '06
