Carb Kits

Do you guys have a good place to get Carb kits for a XJ550RH? The carbs of my bike need all the gaskets and o-rings replaced plus one of the jets.

I found a kit online.. but it does not have the jets..

Fitz,

Thanks. I am a bit confused about the parts and where they go on the carbs. Got any good pictures that outlines the carbs?

 

You can review these two threads, they have a couple of pix of the Mikuni carbs........

 

Len, you forgot the links.

Antothoro; Sorry, I did mine before I got my camera. I have a BRAND NEW Mikuni from a 550 though, and planned to dissect it and take pics.

But there are two photo-thingies "in the pipe" ahead of it...

Sounds like you need a service manual.

 

Minor issue! But here they are:

WOW
Len, those pictures are awesome. They answer so many of my questions...


Fitz, yes.. I do need a service manual... It is on my list to buy..

 

Guys, what is the silver "washer" looking thing in the bottom left of the following picture?

It a replacement "anti-tamper" cap to cover up the idle (pilot) mixture screw port. Don't use it! Use an easily-removable rubber plug of some sort so you don't have to drill out that plug the next time you want to get to the mixture screws!!
