    VM Float needle etc

    Anyone got any good sources?



    right at the bottom $10.75 is about the best I've found so far. (z1 only does the HL Kit or just the needle no seat). Zuki's price appears to be about $40 a set.

    Fed up of my Skunk's slight incontinence as it makes the garage stink.

    I think the Carbs overfill from the fuel left in the fuel line when parked & then it overflows down the overflow tube, usually only when disturbed & usually appears to be only number 2 or 3 carb (can't remember which offhand).

    Cleaning hasn't really worked so probably time to replace.

    Will obviously check I haven't got a punctured float in there as well.. could be possible & then re-set heights (which I also haven't done for a while).

      The only ones I found were in Canada and then the shipping would higher.

      I think the ones you need are the same...about half way down the page.

        Sirius Consolidate has many parts.

        Heres the search pages for the Suzuki stuff. For other bikes click on the select model and choose whatever you need. then on the select parts and choose carb parts.

        NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.


        I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

          Two sources that the guys on the Suzuki 2 stroke forum use:
          http://jetsrus.com
          http://www.motorcyclecarbs.com

          Sometimes there are good deals on eBay too.
