    Idle Mixture screws...Where to buy

    After cleaning my carbs yesterday I found the three tips had broken off and are stuck. The bile runs rich and will not Idle with out the emulation opened slightly. I will be taking then back off to freeze and remove the stuck tips. I did a search but could not see any post on where to get new tips. I don't need a complete kit just the Idle mixture screws. Any help would be appreciated.


    Thanks in advance

      You can check at Mikes XS he has them. Also message Goergefix on ebay. He sells kits but will also sell individual parts.

        Mikes XS Idle Screws

        Which ones are the correct ones? The only ones that look correct are listed for the 38mm carbs. Am I looking in the right place, or are they the right ones listed under the 38mm carbs?

          I don't think MikesXS has the proper mixture screws for the early BS-34-II type carbs.

              I'm not sure where you can get them cheaply. Last time I needed some, I got them from Bikebandit, not cheap though. If anyone knows of a supplier for these at a reasonable price, please share.

                  Drop George a line and he will probably sell you just the needles.

                      I had this problem a few months back and someone swore that the mikes ones were correct. However I bought 3 used for 17 bucks.
