Carb model verification

Well, I don't know about you, but I see a needle, an emulsion tube, a main jet, pilot jet, float needle with seat and, at the bottom what I would have called the 185 jet.

Hey Ozz,

Okay, I remember reading an interesting bit of info, and found it on MikesXS web site, see below bolded text!

Fits: All 1970-79 XS/TX 650's Mikuni BS38 CV carbs and is also used as the
Air jet on All 1980-84 XS650 Mikuni BS34 CV carbs.

**Regrettably, Mikes only goes to 160 size, but BikeBandit has them, see below! But only in sets of 4!

I went to Kamikaze Motorsports in Wichita, and asked for Mikuni main jets. He asked what kind and started rattling off options. They two that caught my ear were Large round and Small round. From what I gathered, you should be able to go to a shop and ask for a #185 small round mikuni jet and get what you need. Our main jets are the Large round type.

Ironically enough, I was just running around town tonight trying to find a set of #195 pilot air jets. I found out that it really helps if you find someone that knows a bit about mikunis. If you get someone that is a newbie, just ask for the old hand and they can set you up ok.
