Title: YZ125 H 1981 Jet Needle
Post by: Ji Gantor on August 03, 2009, 10:00:07 am

Does anybody have a 6F21-4 jet needle they want to sell?
Does anyone know what alternate jetting there is for the VM34 Mikuni Carby if you don't have the 6F21-4 jet needle?

Thanks Ji

have you tried T D Hattricks (the Mikuni distributors) in Townsville?

I bought some jets off them the other week, very helpful and next day delivery.

Hi Mainline,
Yes I rang them and they can no longer get that needle. I also rang Yamaha and they no longer have any in stock here or in Japan.

Hi Mainline,
Thank you very much.
How much should I send you?
Is it in good condition?
How can I get it before the Nationals?
Is the 6F21 similar to the 6F22?

Keep well
Ji

I have a 6F21 needle you can have. I cann't see a -4 on it. ::) (something to do with getting old) It's come out of a carby off a 85 YZ125. Pm me your address if you want it. Darcy

The 4 is for the clip position.. 4th from the top.

if you can't sort out something with Darcy in time for the nats, and the one I've got will work you can have it for nix, I've got another anyway.

I live on the northwest of brissy, and I'm thinking you might too?? or am I thinking of someone else?

Either way let me know if you need it

Try Ian Williams Tuning in SA not those numpties/robbers in Townsville. Your number is the actual needle not a needle jet/emulsion tube.

Hi Lozza,
Thanks mate I will give them a call to see what they got.
The Mikuni cat and my Yami manual all call the needle a "Jet Needle"

Thanks to Mainline and Dkupf for their assistance.

Keep well
Ji

I always find Tom at Hatricks helpful.
He usually has the parts or carbs I need.
Tom sells jets for $10.00.

Ian has the parts I need in a hurry so he is my main man.
He was busy today when I rang and did not wish to talk.
I was extremely pleased that he had the parts so nothing else matters.
Ian sells jets for $8.80.

I will let the market judge.
All I know is I am happy Lozza put me onto Ian.

Hi Dkupf (Darcy),
I received the needle this morning and it is in the bike as I type.
The engine is running real crisp as it should off idle.

Thanks to my sponsor Darcy and technical manager Lozza the bike is now ready for the Nationals.
