Needle valve!!!!!

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know where I can obtain a needle for a needle valve on a 1977 gs550? i was successfully cleaning carbs for the first time in my lfe and after a good cleaning to the needle valve I replaced it into the body and then tipped it upside down. Dang thing didn't slide when it was all varnished in with old gas.

So anyways, it's lost in the abyss. Can I pick one up somewhere or will I need to purchase a whole set of carbs and dig one out?

Anyone here have one to sell?


Thanks
Tim

Some guy on E-bay has many different carb rebuild kits available. Of course you have to buy 4 of them, but at $65 it's a lot cheaper than $100 from most the other places. I picked 'em up!

Take your old ones to the dealer.

Take your old ones to the dealer. They have new ones with rubber tips. They are made for newer bikes, but work great on older bikes as well. If you have your old ones with you they can find the exact size you need. They are much cheaper than the original ones becouse they have assorted kits of them.
