They are the ones, i ordered GJH needles.

Looks like most folks are ordering from JetsRus or sudco there are some direct links posted somewhere here in the earlier pages that take you directly to the JetsRus needles and jets section.

Wish i had read this before cutting off my mounts :doh: Nice build ScooterMagoo .

Good one Fredintoon and Gday to you. i stand corrected a very fast lorrie indeed ! don't you like those old stories, I remember reading " Those Bentley Days " if you can find a copy it's a good read with plenty of tales told.

Well done a very nice unique bike for your country. Senore Bugatti also told Mr Bentley that he built a very fine truck !

I'm thinking I'll shift my idle speed adjuster out the side as well, which reminds me the mile flat track pipes make working on the left hand side carby a pain in the backside, still waiting for the jets and needles to arrive from jets r us via a friend from Texas. Muks you are right on about...

I believe they are the same carbys with may be a few very minor differences.

Finally received the intake boots I'm pleasantly surprised with the quality they are a nice snug fit on the EX500 Ninja carbs, unfortunately i don't have any original carbs to try them on. I guess the big test will be when i have the bike on the road.

Will do .

The seller has a separate listing for the VM 38 carbs different part # . Anyway i have ordered a pair, I'll find out how good a fit they are when the boots arrive, I might have to use a little Sikaflex .

I have read the thread about JBM intake boots i can appreciate the effort that went into making them,but by the time they reach the shores over here the cost is just that little to much. Thanks Dogbunny for the info i will be ordering a pair, apparently they are made by ARS.

Thanks 2many, I need to replace my bs 38 intake boots for 34 ones to make way for the Ninja ES500 carby install. Having read a post here on the good and bad of repo boots it was suggested that ones made in Japan were of good quality and could take a bit of ethanol . Most petrol stations over...

Has anyone bought intake boots from this ebay seller says they are made in Japan . http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-80-84-XS650-CARB-HOLDERS-INTAKE-MANIFOLD-BOOTS-HERITAGE-SPECIAL-BS34-CARBS-/201261047115?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2edc17dd4b

After much deliberation and agonising I'll order the GFH and JJJ needles .

I'll order another type of needle as well, saves having to reorder again and waiting on the other side of the pond Leo. CD that about sums it up about jets rus it has me why as well, but it is one stop shopping and everything i need, only hassle is having the family friend in Texas do the...

Skull i see the plot thickens , when i picked the bike up the front end was disassembled so i don't know if the callipers were front or rear mounted. I think i could have done the wrong thing by grinding the lugs off and smoothing off one of the lower legs as it was a twin disk set up which i...

Thanks JD

Signal you need to head on over to XS-650 Garage USA here is the thread title [ $19 Junkyard electronic ignition ] it's one of mrrigs great inovations .

Leo thanks for mentioning that conundrum , when looking at emulsion valves for the front forks i was getting a little confused as to what model i have due to the head stem tag saying November 1975 . It's definitely a C model according to the engine #'s and the French blue paint scheme which...
