Default Needle Jet and Jet Needle

Hi Guys,
(Please don't hate me because) I'm riding a klr 650 Tengai, 1990 model.
I have a surging problem above 3,000 rpm, inside the carburetor there's a worn needle and oval jet, so I'd like to change them.
The Carburetor is Kehin CVK40.
Harley parts are dirty cheap when compared to Kawasaki. So I'm trying to figure out the correct harely part numbers from the ones that I got.
Needle Jet is #6. Kawasaki number 16009-1537, they ask for 30$ for it.
Jet Needle is N74C. Kawasaki number 16017-1254, they ask for 40$ for it.

On bikebandit
http://www.bikebandit.com/houseofmot...-1436#sch50471
it says:
NEEDLE-JET,N31R
JET-NEEDLE,01A36

(This can be due to the fact that the 1st quoted part numbers are from my service manual, in Australia. It's the same parts)

Any help is very welcome!
