Where can I buy a set of adjustable needles for my ZX9R bike carbs?

Mine came with them in but I suspect they where from a Dynojet kit, thats based on the air bleed jet beign blocked off.

Mine came with the dynojet kit. You're very unlikely to buy them on their own. I believe you can just place washers on the end though.

i have some washers,il tell you what though,i thort i was running a bit lean,so i added 3washers on each neadle,about 3mm,far to rich,ended up useing 1 in each 1mm of washer,
what motor is it?

if its a pinto what size are the jets drilled out to?

also if you have the std kinhin neadles there is about 10mm of ajustment by useing washers and i think that that is plenty,

I have a 2 lt Pinto. The carbs were bought from Bogg Bros so I am not sure what size the jets are. I just told them what my set up was
I am going on a rolling road in the next few weeks and wanted to be prepared

just undo one of the black caps on the top of the carbs,take the spring out,lift the diafam out,take cure not to rip it and not to loss the little brass vac insert that is in the diafam,take the neadle and the plastic stop to b&q and grab the washers, sorted
