    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Mikuni BS Set Screws...

After stripping one of the set screws while doing a carb sync, I replaced all three with a spring loaded type screw that came off an old set of Mikuni carbs I had lying around. They worked fine for about 1K miles and were MUCH easier to adjust. But, the bike is starting to run crappy again and I know it's the sync. I went looking for the two "good" set screws and I have mis-placed them. Does anyone know where I can find these and how much they may cost? It's a super fine thread on these things and Ace Hardware has nothing even close. Can't find them at Z1 either. Thanks for any assistance...
 
babbittsonline.com, they seem to have lots of jets and bolts and crap.

They have a giant blue-print of each bike, with a list, and you kind of order based on that.....they SEEM to have hard to get stuff......maybe I just got lucky.
