Mikuni VM26 Pilot Jets 17.5 - Hens Teeth ?

#1 PostAuthor: Tonto » Tue Jul 30, 2019 7:07 pm

Hi Chaps, I need to refurbish some carb issues on a Z1000A1 project, but cant seem to find a source for standard Mikuni 17.5 pilot jets.
Tried a few searches for VM26 pilots: phoned Allens Performance twice and was told "no one available go away". I emailed them and 48 hours later have zero response :cry:
I tried Parker Racing and they have genuine Mikunis Pilots but only from 22.5 upwards - did not think they would be so had to source.

Can anyone recommend a supplier of the elusive items, before buying some Chinese eBay offerings ?

Cheers Tim

Ive bought genuine Mikuni parts from these guys recently. Expensive but quick to send and arrive.

Keep trying allens, they can be difficult to get through to but worth the perseverance or order them via the website and you dont have to talk to them http://www.allensperformance.co.uk/shop
