    That motorcyclecarbs place was a rip off business. Stay clear. Several members here have posted negative info about them.

      For parts at reasonable prices and shipping that should arrive in a few days,
      CALL the good folks at Z1enterprizes.com
      They have just about everything that you need for your carbs or can get them for you.
      Most of what they carry/supply is NOT on their website.
      Again, CALL THEM.

          It's not looking good. Z1 doesn't have most of the parts.

          I can get them from dealer maybe... anyone have mikuni parts sitting around?

              one 115 jet, one 180 pilot air jet, one X-5 needle jet, maybe one or two 5D50 needles. There's some issue over pilot air jets. The Z1 guy says I need 190's for pilots, the manual says 180's. The manual is suzuki printed, the parts list is suzuki printed. Those don't match. there's a guy at work that may have some parts, and if not, the Z1 guy says that suzuki corporate says I can still get the parts, but availability is "limited". Either way, I'm looking at 3 weeks for a dealer order. That kills my ambitions to make it run by August 28.

                Ok I'll have a look through my coffee cans of carb parts.

                  Definitely only one 5D50 needle. I'm going to place an order somewhere by tomorrow.

                    I have all the above
                    1-115 main jet
                    2-5D50 Jet needle
                    1-X-5 Needle jet
                    1-180 Pilot air jet (it says 175 but I have a set of carbs with 180 and I matched it and drilled it so it is a 180)
                    I can get them out today if I hear from you in time.
