        That is all part of an assembly called "STARTER VALVE".

        The 1150 carbs must be animals of a slightly different breed.
        All the "Starter Valve" parts I have seen on smaller bikes (450-1100) have been brass.

          Ya those must have been the start of the plastic nuts, most of the newer stuff all have plastic now.

            I know the brass ones from the 1100's work just fine.
