Its cheaper to buy a selection of drills , if you need to go larger with the jets sizes.

I get mine from here :

www.drill-service.co.uk/



they go up in .005mm , i.e 1.4 ,1.45, 1.50, etc.

I need small ones to start with. Mine are 170 i think.

What size are your carbs 36mm /38mm?

I'd be surprised if you needed less than 160/170.

Unless you have a restrictive air filter.

What about the needle ? , these carbs spend a lot of time running on the needle portion of the range.

Theyr 38 i think. Set up by bogg bros. I have a sausage filter on it which makes hell of a difference to the running. I havent taken the bowels off so not sure of the jet size, Just guessing.

Can supply parts for mikuni etc.

Some people have used weber main jets , they can be bought much cheaper.
