What is this needle???
 
I order a jet kit from J&P Cycles to do some tweeking on my carb. (TC88) It's got 3 different slow jets and 4 main jets.

It also came with a needle, part# JN #5 MAHR JH #08B00. Soooooo....is this needle different from my stock needle, should I try it.

The kit also came with a new emulsion tube do I need to use both. Changing jets are no problem but I don't know squat about needles and e-tubes. I don't like messing with the top of the carb cause it's a hassle to raise the tank to get at. I'd rather be riding.



Thanks

If you are going to do the mod, do ALL OF IT........

Do you want the bike running Half-Azzed????

If so, then do it your way......

And yes, the needle is different....

Compare the Stocker to the updated one, and you will see that it is tapered more aggressively......

The kit did come with instructions, No?????

I was hoping you'd catch this thread.

I'll go all the way, just curious about the needle.

Thanks
