  • Needle Jet

    Anybody have a source for the needle jet assemblies for the 81 lh carbs. I need the needles,flat washers, screws, springs and the round retainer that fits into the slides. Trying to salvage a spare set of carbs. I've looked at Z1, partsmore & George fix. Anyone have a rabbit in their hat?

      Mikes seems to have everything except the plastic retainer.

            Don't tell mike you are working on an 1100. He's not fond of them.

              If you use oddball needle/emulsion tube combos or ones not designed for the XS11, you may run into tuning problems, YMMV. I know there are not many options of finding the OEM replacements.
